James SucklingAromas of flowers and lightly green flower stems follow through to a medium body with firm tannins and a fresh finish. Medium, fine tannins.

Wine EnthusiastThe wine's positively frisky texture and zippy acidity will awaken the most jaded palate. Aromas and flavors of raspberries and Craisins are joined by wee bits of Douglas fir bark, sweet-pea flowers, orange zest and dark chocolate. What's not to love?
Grape Variety
Pinot Noir
Pinot Noir is a red wine grape variety that is widely considered one of the most challenging and finicky to grow. It is known for producing elegant, aromatic wines with flavors and aromas that can include red berries, cherry, floral notes, and earthy undertones. Pinot Noir is often associated with regions like Burgundy in France, where it reaches its pinnacle, producing some of the world's most sought-after and expensive wines.
Region
Willamette Valley
Willamette Valley is Oregon’s most celebrated wine region, best known for elegant, cool-climate Pinot Noir that emphasizes balance, bright acidity, and expressive terroir rather than sheer power. Stretching south from Portland, the valley’s marine-influenced climate, long growing season, and diverse volcanic and sedimentary soils create wines with red cherry, raspberry, earthy spice, and floral notes. Alongside Pinot Noir, the region also excels with Chardonnay, Pinot Gris, and Riesling, often crafted in a restrained, Old World–inspired style. Sustainable and organic farming are deeply ingrained here, and many producers favor small-lot, site-driven winemaking that highlights vineyard character.
