2022 | Illahe Vineyards Pinot Noir "Bon Sauvage" | Oregon | USA
Willamette Pinot from a rising estate — grown next to the vineyard behind Oregon's $100 cult bottlings.
Illahe Vineyards farms an 80-acre south-facing slope in the Willamette Valley, tucked behind the famed Freedom Hill vineyard — the source for Ken Wright, Walter Scott and other benchmark Oregon Pinots. "Bon Sauvage" is their estate Pinot Noir, a pure, earthy expression of cool-climate Willamette fruit at a fraction of its neighbors' prices.
Willamette Pinot of real pedigree, from a great neighborhood, is the value sweet spot in American Pinot. Wine Spectator flagged it in the 91–94 range, CellarTracker around 91 → the $100 Pinots next door cost triple → at $34.99 you're drinking prime Willamette terroir.

- Willamette Valley, Oregon — estate fruit near Freedom Hill

Prime-neighborhood Willamette Pinot at an everyday price. Exactly the bottle for salmon, roast chicken, or a Tuesday that deserves better.
