Day #300 of the year.

Resonance Willamette Valley Pinot Noir

If you’ve been anywhere the last few weeks, I would bet you’ve seen pumpkins by the truckload. October is the month of pumpkins and October 26th is national pumpkin day! When you prepare to carve your Jack-O-Lantern for Halloween this weekend, be sure to save the seeds and guts for some tasty fall recipes. Be it arugula pumpkin seed salad or a maybe some pumpkin ravioli, Resonance’s Willamette Valley Pinot Noir will be a perfect companion to your pumpkin creation. The spice in this wine will pair with the nuttiness of the seeds and the richness of the pumpkin flavor. Happy picking!

ORIGIN

Willamette Valley, OR

Grapes

Pinot Noir

Tasting Notes

Deep and brilliant dark ruby color. On the nose, aromas of red fruits pair elegantly with a touch of spice and wood. Flavors such as cherries and currants standout in the mouth and finish with soft tannins and a pleasant minerality.

Food Match

Pairs well with poultry or red meat, as well with heavier seafood and roasted vegetables.
