Battle Creek Cellars Pinot Noir ‘Unconditional’ 2020

Introduction

True to the essence of Oregon’s pioneering spirit, Battle Creek Cellars is built on a foundation of rugged elegance and unconventional sensibility. Their wines are crafted to showcase the simple approachability, dedicated farming, winemaking and transparency of the terroir they work into every bottle. With a sincere adoration of the region, Battle Creek earns a place on your table with unconditional gratitude. Their focus is on thoughtfully made artisan wine without any pomp and circumstance. Whether sourced from their namesake vineyard, Battle Creek, or their other beloved vineyards throughout the state, their wines are distinctively Oregon.
This wine’s aromatics are dark, brooding, and constantly evolve in the glass from black huckleberry and wild blueberry to orange blossom and camphor, from Concord grape to freshly rolled cigars, ever-expanding and developing. The entry is transparent to the nose, ethereal and constantly changing, delivering notes of boysenberries and fresh, resinous pine. The mid-palate and finish offer the depth and structure of sinewy tannins supported by the natural acid backbone that is characteristic of this vineyard.
