The wine region of Yamhill-Carlton District
Premium AVA of the Willamette Valley (Oregon) southwest of Portland: Pinot Noir reigns in red (~70%) — deep ruby robe with signature notes of blackberry, raspberry, clove, tobacco, coffee and a floral spice touch, silky and broad tannins, fleshy textured profile from a warmer mesoclimate. Pinot Gris and Chardonnay as racy complements. AVA (2005), oldest marine sedimentary loam-sandy soils of the valley, slopes 60-300 m south-facing.
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: Tartar (deposit)
White, chalky deposits that occur as a result of precipitation inside bottles and are often considered by consumers as a defect. They are in fact tartaric salts formed by tartaric acid, potassium and calcium naturally present in the wine. This deposit does not alter the quality of the wine and can be eliminated by a simple decanting.
