Produced by King Estate Winery in the southern Willamette Valley, the Acrobat range of wines is for everyday and all occasions. The brand debuted in 2009. At the heart of these wines is the love of pairing an honest wine with casual meals and gatherings. Acrobat should always be an effortless selection – a wine that consistently pairs in every way with our lives. Acrobat is crafted in the hills and valleys of western Oregon, with an eye on sustainable winemaking practices.
Acrobat wines are sourced from a spectrum of Oregon vineyards, spanning the three classic Western AVA’s – Willamette Valley, Umpqua Valley and Rogue Valley. Grower relationships are what make Acrobat wines so deliciously consistent each vintage. Each vineyard and AVA have distinct characteristics and provide their own flavor. This diverse geographical selection was done by design, giving Acrobat wines a balanced flavor profile of the state of Oregon.
Tasting Notes
Bright red fruit; cranberry and raspberry and baking spices on the nose. The aromas carry onto a medium bodied supple and smooth palate. This is an easy drinking Pinot Noir that offers nice concentration and fruit without being overly jammy and would likely appeal to a wide range of wine drinkers and pair with an array of foods; a few suggestions are roast chicken or chicken pot pie, cedar planked salmong or a Portobello mushroom burger with a side of sweet potato fries.
Method
This Pinot Noir is almost a perfect blend of Oregon’s top appellations – Rogue Valley, Umpqua Valley, and Willamette Valley. Early harvest, stainless steel fermentation, and a combination of gentle punchdowns and pumpovers all aimed at revealing the bright red fruits and ripe tannins in this red wine. The wine was gently pressed and aged for 9 months in French oak, where it completed malolactic fermentation
