Producer's Notes: WinemakingComing from all over the Willamette Valley, the grapes were harvested from September 14th to October 8th. The wine was fermented to dryness over 7-10 days with pump-overs to mix up the magic. The final wine was put down for a seven month slumber in stainless steel with a touch of oak influence. VintageAll across Oregon the 2023 vintage was easy-peasy, lemon-squeezy! There was a late, cool spring, a warm dry summer with just a little heat blip in August, and a great looking harvest. Some years mother nature just lets you get the easy 'W'! NotesThe Willamette Valley never fails to produce beautiful fruit flavors in its Pinot. This wine is packed with rich flavors of cranberry, blackberry, and plum, followed by a touch of black tea and tannins on the finish. PairingsA foodies delight, this wine pairs with darn near everything! Pumpkin chipotle soup, glazed pork chops, wild mushroom risotto, even a decadent dark chocolate torte!
