Antica Terra Oregon Botanica Pinot Noir 2017
Botanica is an expression of the fruitfulness and fertility of the flora of this place. The wine tends towards being sappy, sanguine, with a taste of wild rose, sour cherries, and blood orange. While it is tempting to define it solely by its compelling texture and lush personality, there is a structural element that is equally striking. This balance between extraordinary concentration and pronounced tension is the essence of the wine.
