Lighter in body (generally) and more focused on minerality, I love a good pinot because they pair well with so well with fall fare! Wine Manager Will Bliss at H-E-B Westlake shares three quality pinot noir selections from Oregon’s esteemed Willamette Valley on store shelves now…
Primarius
$15.98
The name whose Latin translation means “distinguished.” A light, bright, food-friendly pinot with nice acidity and fruit flavoring. As Will puts it, a “great intro into Oregon wine.”
Pairing: Grilled fish, poultry
Elk Cove Vineyards
$26.99
Complex, well-balanced flavors in this estate grown Oregon pinot as well; fresh and fruit forward!
Pairing: Pork Chops, Lamb
Evening Land
$35.99
Excellent; a Rajat Parr wine – one of my wine heroes! A lower alcohol content on this one too, so sip away!
