Cristom & Sojeau Vineyards

Eola-Amity Hills Pinot Noir

The Archery Summit Cristom & Sojeau Vineyards Pinot Noir is a remarkable offering from the Eola-Amity Hills region, showcasing the elegance and complexity that this wine-growing area is known for. This vibrant red wine presents a captivating bouquet of red fruits, particularly cherry and raspberry, intertwined with subtle earthy undertones and hints of spice. On the palate, it displays a medium body that balances a refreshing acidity, making it both approachable and sophisticated. The soft, delicate tannins add structure, enhancing the overall mouthfeel without overwhelming the wine's fruit-forward characteristics. The finish is long and lingering, inviting you to savor each sip, while its food-friendly nature makes it a delightful companion for a variety of dishes, from roasted poultry to mushroom risotto. This Pinot Noir beautifully reflects the terroir of its vineyards, promising a truly enjoyable experience for any wine lover.

Willamette Valley
Willamette Valley

The Willamette Valley is understandably most often associated with Pinot Noir. The cool-climate region has a unique relationship to this most delicate (and temperamental!) red wine grape. Lying on the same latitude as Burgundy in France, the Willamette Valley enjoys the perfect balance of sunshine and rain, proximity to the Pacific Ocean and protection on either side by the Coast Range and the Cascade Mountains. Along its 100 miles, the Willamette Valley boasts many distinct terroirs, so among its many brightly fruity, elegantly structured and blissfully fragrant Pinots, you'll also find exceptional Pinot Gris, Chardonnay and Riesling.
