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: Sorting
Action which consists in removing the bad grains, not ripe or affected by the rot. We often use vibrating sorting tables which, by shaking, make the impurities fall to the ground. In the case of sweet wines, we speak of harvesting by successive selections, in several passages, to select the very ripe grapes each time.
