Expert Review - Vintage 2022
James Suckling 93 Points | An open, expressive wine with floral, mineral and cherry notes. Grapes grown at the more elevated end of the property on iron-rich, volcanic soil give it just-ripe red and black cherries and moderate tannins on a medium body. Generous in flavor but still nervy and structured in texture.

Decanter 93 Points | A challenging wine to make, says winemaker Amael Orrego, who crafts the blend of this wine across 82 Pinot Noir blocks. The wine captures the freshness of the Willamette Valley and its bright red berry aromatics that combine with savoury herbal notes of mint and pennyroyal. The palate offers red fruited complexity. Ripe wild strawberries, cranberries and mint rise up from elements of earth and forest floor for an impressive wine, capturing the fresh, lively character of Willamette Valley Pinot Noir with broad distribution.

Producer Notes
Vibrant ripe cherry, cranberry, and raspberry nose unfold into dried blueberries, plum, and lively summer herbs. Full, plush, and balanced textures with fine grained tannins and a gentle, bright acidity. This wine is complex and layered, with ripe, fresh flavors and elegance.

James Suckling writes: Wild strawberries, cherries, dried flowers and nutmeg on the nose. Some chocolate orange. Medium-bodied, tight and sleek, with fine tannins and a fresh finish. - James Suckling 91
Clive Pursehouse writes: Benton Lane is in the southern end of Oregon's Willamette Valley; this wine, made in a riper fleshy style, is a blend from sustainably farmed vineyards throughout the region—aromatics of kirsch, cassia bark, and dusty black cherry. The palate is juicy and full, with more concentrated black and bing cherry flavours, hints of clove and cinnamon and a touch of mint to finish. Drinking 2023 - 2028 - Decanter 91
Tim Fish writes: Well-built and zesty, with cherry and strawberry flavors laced with savory spices and black tea. Finishes with medium-grained tannins. Drink now through 2030. - Wine Spectator
