Tasting Notes

The 2024 La Combe Verte blends the elegant, volcanic soils of Eola-Amity with the powerful, marine sedimentary expressions of Sequitur and Freedom Hill Vineyards, resulting in a wine that embodies our deep-rooted commitment to working with the best wine growers and vineyards in the Willamette Valley.

The inviting nose envelopes the senses with the suggestion of both ripe red raspberry and black cherry complimented by fragrant hibiscus, violets, and the comforting warmth of sandalwood. On the palate, dense fruit, succulent tannins, and vibrant acidity create a lively interplay, revealing the remarkable balance of power and grace that defines Willamette Valley Pinot noir.

About the Wine

At Walter Scott, we embrace the wisdom of Burgundy's legendary importer Becky Wasserman, who famously said, 'You can always judge a great domaine by the quality of their Bourgogne bottling.' Inspired by this ethos, we pour the same passion into our Willamette Valley wines as we do into our single vineyard selections. 

Translating to 'The Green Fault' or 'The Green Valley,' La Combe Verte pays homage to the lush landscapes of the Willamette Valley and our cherished friends at Patricia Green Cellars, the incubator for the fledgeling Walter Scott first vintage.
