Torii Mor Pinot Noir Olson Vineyard 2021
The 2021 Olson Vineyard aroma is forward, complex and sweet, with red cherries, floral notes of roses and violets, light earthy note, and a hint of cocoa.
The flavors are bright and sweet displaying a mixture of high tone red fruit and dark cherries, floral notes, caramel, and light oak toast followed by a peppery spiciness.
The texture is rich, round, and sweet, the entry is bright and instantly pleasing, the tannins round and sweet and integrated providing great structure and elegance.
The finish is very long, fruity, rich, spicy and prolongs the pleasure for a very long time, all with elegance and grace.
This wine doesn’t need decanting and can be enjoyed now.

Winery Description
The name ‘Torii Mor’ is an integration of the Japanese the word for a gate to sacred place and the ancient Scandinavian word ‘Mor’ which means: "earth." By integrating these two distinct languages, the metaphor of the vine as a sacred gate to the earth through which beautiful things come is formed. Perhaps no other varietal expresses the sense of place from which it comes more elegantly than Pinot Noir, and Torrii Mor’s Pinot Noirs are carefully crafted with minimal handling and native yeast fermentation to express what the earth offers in the most nonintrusive and purest style possible.
Torii Mor views wine, especially Pinot noir, is a priceless, non-reproducible work of art created by the cooperation of people with nature and people with each other. It is both art and a story to be enjoyed with family and friends. We think that you will agree.
