2017 Kelley Fox Pinot Noir Ahurani Willamette Valley


A beautiful translucent cherry red in color. Deep nose of black cherry. Vibrant strawberry fruit, just lovely if uncomplicated. Polished tannins, crisp acidity, great balance. A fairly long finish of cherry and strawberry. Nothing complex here, but so well executed it's a delight to drink. Kelley didn't bottle a separate Momtazi Vineyard designate in 2017, but Momtazi is the source of all the grapes in this wine. A bargain at $35 (or $30 if you are in her club). A-
