Resonance Louis Jadot Estates RESONANCE VINEYARD Pinot Noir Yamhill Carlton District 2021 750ml
Expert Reviews
93 Points Wine Enthusiast: The kind of acidity that raises goose bumps on arms fuels a lively wine packing oodles of tart red cherries and boysenberries, along with flavors of espresso and sea salt. The aromas are equally captivating, as black cherries, glove leather and violets fill the air with each glass swirl. Try it with a bacon sandwich.Show More >

93 Points Wine Enthusiast: The kind of acidity that raises goose bumps on arms fuels a lively wine packing oodles of tart red cherries and boysenberries, along with flavors of espresso and sea salt. The aromas are equally captivating, as black cherries, glove leather and violets fill the air with each glass swirl. Try it with a bacon sandwich.
James Suckling writes: More mineral and reserved with aromas of cherry stones, blackberries, iron, dark raspberries, tea leaves and dried violets. Firm, focused and deep, with a medium body and tight-knit tannins. Mineral and tight at the moment. From organically grown grapes. Try from 2024.
95 Points Rober Parker Wine Advocate: The 2021 Résonance Vineyard Pinot Noir has broody aromas of pomegranate, black cherry, iodine, forest floor and amaro. Despite its concentrated, floral flavors, it has an elegant structure of silky tannins and vibrant acidity and a very long, nuanced finish.
94 Points Decanter: Charming aromatics of violets and spice. 300-500ft elevation and marine sedimentary soils. 40-year-old vines are own-rooted and planted in 1981. The Résonance vineyard was acquired in 2013, 20 acres, with tangy blackberries and cranberries that meld with blood oranges and spice. Smoky mint notes lift clove and Chinese five spice. 70% Pommard, 15% Dijon and 15% wadenswil. The original blocks are the heart of this wine. The density of fruit comes from marine soils, 100% destemmed with extended maceration, native yeasts and no pump overs. 3-4 week maceration. Lees are removed after malo, and the wines are aged 18 months in oak. Fruit complements the tension and mineral core of the wine. The three clonal selections help craft the wine, Wadenswil brings structure, Dijon the elegance and black fruit.
Winemaker Description
This Estate-Grown Single Vineyard Pinot Noir is the signature expression of our Résonance Vineyard. Sourced from 20 acres of organically dry-farmed Pinot noir on south-facing slopes in the Yamhill-Carlton AVA, these vines benefit from some of the choicest vineyard land in Oregon wine country. Uniquely ungrafted (retaining their original rootstock) clonal selections of Pommard, Dijon 777, and Wädenswil directly translate the terroir of the ancient basaltic sedimentary soil. Our Résonance Vineyard Pinot Noir reveals the immense character, the “somewhereness”, of this historic property.
