This cold, rainy day in Dallas has me reminiscing of a wonderful visit to @utopiavineyard in Willamette Valley’s Ribbon Ridge AVA last week. Owner/Viticultural Manager/Winemaker Daniel Warnshuis crafts beautiful wines. We had the pleasure of tasting through 3 vintages of the ‘Paradise’ Estate Reserve Pinot Noir. The 2014 offered classic notes of dark red fruit, red flowers, baking spice, dried herbs, and a mineral earthiness. This record heat vintage delivers more concentrated fruit with firm structure and broad texture on the palate. It was a perfect pairing for Kathy Warnshuis’ delicious homemade Beef Bourgogne - warming me from the inside out on a cold, rainy Oregon day. #throwbackthursday #youcansipwithus #wvwine #pinotnoir #orwine #winetasting #wineandfoodpairing #womenwhowine #winetravel #willamettevalleywine #winewriterslife #makememories #forkyeah #partyinmymouth #winelife
