Discover the grape variety: Pinot noir

Elegant reds, light in colour with silky tannins, showing strawberry, cherry and raspberry aromas, evolving to forest floor, mushroom and spice with age. Fresh acidity, delicate finish. Star of the Côte d'Or (Romanée-Conti, Chambertin, Volnay), pillar of Champagne (Blanc de Noirs) and signature of Oregon, Central Otago and Sonoma Coast. An early-ripening Burgundian variety, one of the world's greatest.

The wine region of Dundee Hills

Iconic AVA of the Willamette Valley (Oregon) on red volcanic Jory soils: Pinot Noir signature as the red king — bright ruby robe with vivid notes of cherry, raspberry, strawberry, earth, truffle, spices and a floral touch, fine silky tannins, signature elegance of the Jory soils. Chardonnay, Pinot Gris and Pinot Blanc complete in fresh, mineral style. AVA (2004), 900 ha planted at 200-300 m, ferruginous Jory soil from Columbia basalts, temperate oceanic.


The wine region of Oregon

American benchmark for fresh, elegant Pinot Noir. Fine, silky reds with signature notes of red cherry, raspberry, wild strawberry, undergrowth and spice, delicate tannins and taut freshness — the closest style to Burgundy outside France. Iconic Willamette Valley on volcanic (Jory) and marine soils. Also precise, mineral Chardonnay, ample Pinot Gris (pear, honey), taut Riesling.
