The wine region of Eola-Amity Hills
Fresh, windy AVA of the Willamette Valley (Oregon) northwest of Salem: Pinot Noir signature as the red king — racy and taut with notes of cherry, raspberry, blackberry, earth, spices and a mineral touch, fine chiselled tannins and signature acidity preserved by the Van Duzer Corridor winds. Chardonnay and Pinot Gris as vivid, mineral whites. AVA (2006), volcanic Jory and marine sedimentary soils on basalts, temperate, ventilated climate.
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.
The word of the wine: Ugni blanc
White grape variety of Italian origin, and the main white variety grown in France. Its large bunches give fine, light and lively wines, suitable for distillation: today it is the main variety for making cognac and armagnac. Ugni blanc, which is a little richer in alcohol when grown in Mediterranean regions, is used in the blending of the Provence and Corsica appellations, often in association with other grape varieties that bring aromas and structure, such as clairette, grenache blanc or sauvignon. Ugni blanc is also used, on a secondary basis, in the production of certain white wines in Gironde (AOC Bordeaux, Entre-deux-Mers, etc.).
