Gran Moraine Vineyard

2023 Yamhill-Carlton Pinot Noir

The Siduri Gran Moraine Vineyard Pinot Noir from the Yamhill-Carlton region is a delightful expression of the vintage. With its vibrant red hue, this wine showcases the characteristic elegance and complexity of Pinot Noir. On the palate, it reveals a medium-bodied profile that beautifully balances a bright acidity, offering a refreshing mouthfeel that invigorates the senses. The fruit intensity is pronounced, with luxurious notes of ripe cherry, raspberry, and subtle hints of forest floor evolving as it opens. The silky tannins provide structure without overpowering the finesse of this wine, making it approachable and food-friendly. The finish is smooth and lingering, capturing the essence of the terroir and the meticulous winemaking techniques employed. This is truly a stellar representation of the potential found in Yamhill-Carlton's acclaimed vineyards.

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.
