It embodies the idea of longevity and can be cellared for 20+ years. I personally (and many others) consider Shea to be one of Oregon’s greatest vineyards. I source from two blocks at Shea Vineyard, Block 6 which was planted in 2000 and 2002 with Pommard and Dijon 115, and the Terrace Block, a\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-markjs=\"true\" class=\"mark6r3hoer3g\" data-ogac=\"\" data-ogab=\"\" data-ogsc=\"\" data-ogsb=\"\"\u003est\u003c\/span\u003eeeply terraced block planted with Pommard on fractured sandstone and sediment.\" -\u003cstrong\u003e Winemaker's Notes, \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eMark Vlossak\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e2019 Pinot noir, Shea Vineyard\u003c\/b\u003e was served at the \u003ci\u003e\u003cb\u003eWhite House\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-markjs=\"true\" class=\"mark6r3hoer3g\" data-ogac=\"\" data-ogab=\"\" data-ogsc=\"\" data-ogsb=\"\"\u003eSt\u003c\/span\u003eate Dinner\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e with the President of Kenya, President Obama, Clinton, and Biden in May of 2024.

The supple, delicious and vibrant middle weight flavors aren't particularly dense (though they're by no means dilute) with ample punch, focus and precision on the better-balanced, dusty and lingering finale where the only nit is a hint of warmth.

This is silky-smooth, but it steps lightly, seeming to hover across the palate with ripe wild berry fruits neatly and a hint of inner cedar. Minty herbal tones resonate with a note of cocoa as the 2019 finishes long, juicy and wickedly fresh. It's almost impossible to stop at just one glass.\u003cbr\u003e- May, 2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e93 Points, Wine Enthusiast - Michael Alberty\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA really intriguing mix of red fruit and tangerines highlight an aromatic set that also features touches of leather and loamy soil. All the raspberry flavor you can handle is on tap, along with tastes of smoked almonds and citrus.
