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: Black Grenache
Grenache is a black grape variety that originated in Spain and is one of the great quality varieties of southern France. Sometimes vinified on its own, it is most often blended with one or more other Rhone or southern grape varieties with complementary qualities such as Syrah, Mourvèdre, Carignan or Cinsault. Its wines are warm, with aromas of red fruits (cherry) and spices; they oxidize with time. Vinified alone or in very large proportions, Grenache Noir also makes great natural sweet wines in Roussillon (Rivesaltes, Banyuls, Maury) and in the Rhône Valley (Rasteau).
