J.K. Carriere Vespidae 2016

Simply put, this is beautiful Willamette Valley Pinot Noir. It's perfectly balanced between fruit, earth and floral qualities, and is drinking really nicely with five years of age.

Jim Prosser founded J.K. Carriere after traveling the world and eventually falling in love with Pinot Noir. Their vineyards are farmed organically or biodynamically, wild yeasts are used, and judicious oak usage shows through in these wines. 

If you're on the hunt for a great small vineyard in Oregon to visit or enjoy wine from, look no further.
