Wine SpectatorBright and juicy, offering tart raspberry and cranberry flavors laced with mineral and forest floor accents, which build tension toward fine-grained tannins.

Wine EnthusiastA wonderful example of a Pinot Noir at a value, made from fruit from 15-20 different vineyards in the northern reaches of the Willamette Valley. The aromatics are spice-laden, with notes of Christmas spice, violets and crushed raspberries. The palate offers plenty of high-tone berry fruits, savoury herbs, minerality and a zippy mint finish.
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.
