Our 2021 Five Mountain Pinot Noir was awarded 94 points and featured in the article “The 20 Best Willamette Valley Pinot Noirs” by Karen Macneil
“Precise, taut, lifted, and balletlike on the palate. Delicious cooling flavors of fresh pomegranates and cranberries interwoven with citrus and spice notes. One of the best Elk Cove Pinots in years. The steeply sloped vineyard has a view of five volcanoes in the Cascade Mountain Range.” – Karen Macneil
