This wine originates from select vineyard sites in the center of the Willamette Valley. All the grapes are sourced from cool-climate sites to create elegant, classic Oregon Pinot Noir. The farmers treasure their native environment and use sustainable practices in growing and vinifying the grapes. The vines were planted in 1997-1998 to select clones of Pinot Noir (Pommard, 777, 115). The grapes are hand harvested and the wine is aged for 8 months in 80% neutral oak, 20% two year French oak.
