Nicolas Jay Nysa Pinot Noir 2019

Situated at an elevation of 600 to 700 feet in the Dundee Hills, Nysa Vineyard was planted in 1990 by Michael Mega, and is recognized as the source of some of Oregon’s most exciting Pinot Noirs. Nicolas-Jay’s grapes come from a coveted block of own-rooted Pommard clone vines that are some of the site’s original 1990 plantings. A complex, textural wine with a hauntingly ethereal personality. Flint, candy cane, grapefruit and crushed raspberry converge. Granite and slate push against sweet cloves and sandalwood with charm and generosity. A core of acidity, snappy precision and focus together with dusty earth, crisp red fruits, citrus and rose petals.
