The 2023 Nicolas Jay Bishop Creek Pinot Noir is a beautifully layered and site-driven Oregon Pinot Noir from the Yamhill-Carlton District, showcasing elegance, energy and depth. Sourced from the organically farmed Bishop Creek Vineyard, planted in the late 1980s on marine sedimentary soils, it opens with expressive aromas of black raspberry, cherry, crushed flowers and forest earth, layered with subtle spice, tea leaf and toasted cedar notes.
On the palate, it is medium-bodied with silky texture, fine-grained tannins and vibrant acidity, delivering flavours of wild berries, dark cherry, mineral undertones and savoury spice. The finish is long, polished and beautifully balanced, with freshness and precision throughout.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is an exceptional premium Pinot Noir for customers who appreciate elegant, Burgundian-inspired styles with purity, complexity and finesse. It combines richness with lift and drinkability, making it both impressive now and highly cellar-worthy. Drink now or over the next 8–10 years. Perfect with duck, roast poultry, mushroom dishes, salmon or fine dining cuisine.
