“Medium ruby-purple, the 2019 Pinot Noir La Bohème has lush aromas of cranberry sauce, blood orange, charcuterie, aniseed and potpourri. The palate is concentrated and fresh with expressive, layered fruit, generous spicy accents and a long, flavorful finish.” -Erin Brooks
“2019 Elk Cove ‘La Boheme’ Pinot Noir- The 2019 Elk Cove ‘La Boheme’ is sourced from the La Boheme Vineyard which was planted with Estate Pommard plantings. The wine comes from vines aged 16-35 years, as this spent ten months in 32% new French oak prior to bottling in July 2020. Very fragrant with its red florals, the wine shows off Yakima cherry tones alongside loamy soils and shades of red currants aromatically. The palate is soft and round upon entry with beautiful red fruits that mingle with blood orange zest and stony/silty undertones. Finishing long, this beautiful wine will easily cellar well for another fifteen years.”
Josh Raynolds of Antonio Galloni’s Vinous gave our 2019 La Bohème Pinot Noir a 93 point score in his review of Oregon Wines entitled…
“Blueberry, violets, and plum on the nose meet a mineral, flinty undertone. Along with bright tannins, on the palate, the wine has good acidity, plus silky but crunchy fruit.”
