DUNDEE WINE LIBRARY
PINOT NOIR 2020
PUGILIST CHAPTER THREE
MCMINVILLE OREGON
The Dundee Wine Library in the Dundee Hills AVA of Willamette Valley is family owned by two Oregonian natives, Henry and Araminta Miller. They farm a small estate vineyard, planted in 2015, and have several partnerships with renowned growers in the Dundee Hills, Ribbon Ridge, Chehalem Mountains, and McMinnville AVAs.
Winemaker Thibaud Mandet was born in Auvergne, France, and earned a degree in organic chemistry before moving into more exciting studies in wine in Champagne and Bordeaux. The 2020 Pugilist Pinot Noir was sourced from the Hyland Vineyard in McMinnville and aged for eleven months in neutral French barrels, gently coaxing the fruit’s superior quality to shine through and purely express Willamette Valley’s terroir.

“The DWL The Pugilist Chapter Three Pinot Noir 2020 begins with a nose of sweet cherries, bright berries, wild mushrooms, fresh Spring florals, and wet chalk. The palate continues with concentrated cherry juice and vibrant pomegranate dancing in step with a beautiful balance of ripe fruits with bright freshness. The crisp acidity carries the penetrating fruit through to a long, complex, satisfying finish.”
