2024 Eola Amity Hills Pinot Noir, Evening Land Vineyards

Crimson Current

Bright, perfumed and beautifully alive, the 2024 Eola-Amity Hills Pinot Noir has that lovely Oregon knack for feeling both delicate and deeply expressive at once. Red cherry, cranberry and wild strawberry rise first, followed by rose petal, blood orange and a subtle earthy note that gives the wine its shape and seriousness. The palate is finely etched and supple, with juicy red fruit, a cool mineral thread and just enough savoury spice to keep everything grounded. There is energy everywhere here, but it is delivered with poise rather than force, finishing fresh, lifted and quietly persistent.

For when: the table is laid, the candles are lit, and the red needs elegance rather than weight.
Pairs with: duck, roast chicken, mushroom dishes, or grilled salmon with herbs.
If this wine were a place: a windswept hillside at dusk, with cool air, red leaves and the last light catching the vines.

Evening Land Vineyards has become one of Oregon’s defining names, with Seven Springs and the wider Eola-Amity Hills at the heart of its story. The estate is known for wines shaped by site, tension and restraint, and this Pinot Noir captures that beautifully, taking the appellation’s brightness, spice and mineral edge and wrapping them in a style that feels polished, vivid and unmistakably Oregon.
