Pinot Noir Stewart Vineyard

Hailing from the esteemed Ribbon Ridge region, this Pinot Noir impresses with its medium body, offering a delightful balance that is neither too heavy nor too light. The acidity is bright and lively, creating a refreshing backbone that enhances the wine's fruit-forward character. Expect prominent notes of ripe red cherries and subtle earthiness, intertwined with soft tannins that provide a gentle structure without overpowering the palate. This wine showcases a beautifully harmonious profile, making it an excellent choice for various food pairings or simply enjoying on its own, and it finishes dry, leaving a lasting impression of sophistication and finesse.

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.
