2023 Domaine St. Laurent Rogue Valley Pinot Noir
Uno July - 2026
The Rogue River Valley is in Southwestern Oregon, near the town of Medford. and it appears they have established a pretty good wine producing region, if this Pinot Noir is a fair example of the areas capabilities. This Domaine St. Laurent Pinot Noir, at around twenty dollars, is certainly a gem!
This is an enticing Pinot Noir, with a pretty ruby red hue and a fragrant nose, which invites one to further inspection. The wine is medium-bodied with juicy flavors of strawberry, red raspberry and a little plum. The balance is in perfect harmony with mild tannins in the finish.
The alcohol content is 13.3%, and Norm's score is 92.
Th1s is a definite competitor in the twenty dollar Pinot price range, and was a fine companion for our New Orleans style Shrimp and Sausage Gumbo, on a stormy Saturday night!
score: 92
price : $18 - $22
Now, that's just the way I see it, and you can tell them I said so!
Here's looking at you Kid!
