The 2019 Shea Vineyard, "Estate" Pinot Noir, Willamette Valley was a Merchant's Pick

THE Shea Shea! Yes, that Shea!

October 16, 2023

Only the top 20% of a harvest goes into Shea's namesake "Estate" Pinot.

The balance?

You’ll find Shea Vineyard on the labels of Ken Wright Cellars, Bergstrom, Penner-Ash, Beaux Freres, Westrey, and the list goes on - all sourced from Shea's 140 acres in the Yamhill-Carlton District of the Willamette Valley. 

There is a reason these top-tier producers purchase Shea Vineyard fruit, often called the "Grand Cru" of the region.

"A highly perfumed and finely detailed bouquet evokes fresh red and blue fruits, candied rose, vanilla and incense, and a smoky nuance emerges as the wine opens up. Vibrant raspberry and boysenberry flavors are complemented by suave floral pastille and baking spice flourishes.  Blends depth and vivacity with a sure hand and finishes very long and smooth, with recurring florality and polished tannins that make a late appearance."  Vinous

What We Love About Shea Vineyards

Shea Vineyard is known for its pure and generous fruit. True to form, the 2019 Shea Estate Pinot is explosive on the nose revealing rose petals and strawberry notes mingled with cherry and chocolate on the long and vivid finish. 

The Shea signature comes alive in the 2019 vintage: moderately rich fruit with fine grain tannins; a satiny mouth feel and nice acidity gives the wine terrific lift.

Relish in this Willamette Valley classic now and over the next seven years.

Enjoy!
