Winery's Notes
"Translating to 'The Green Fault' or 'The Green Valley,' La Combe Verte pays homage to the lush landscapes of the Willamette Valley and our cherished friends at Patricia Green Cellars, the incubator for the fledgeling Walter Scott first vintage.
The 2024 La Combe Verte is composed from the volcanic Eola-Amity Hills vineyards of Distraction, Sojeau, Temperance Hill Vineyard, & Witness Tree, blended with the old vine fruit from the powerful, marine sedimentary soil of Freedom Hill Vineyard, resulting in a wine that embodies our deep-rooted commitment to working with the best wine growers and vineyards in the Willamette Valley.
The inviting nose envelopes the senses with the suggestion of both ripe red raspberry and black cherry complimented by fragrant hibiscus, violets, and the comforting warmth of sandalwood. On the palate, dense fruit, succulent tannins, and vibrant acidity create a lively interplay, revealing the remarkable balance of power and grace that defines Willamette Valley Pinot Noir."
