Winery Notes:  This year’s flagship cuvee from our estate vineyard comes primarily from 3 blocks along the east side of the property, which receive morning sun, augmented by a couple of barrels from the west side which enjoys the more intense late afternoon heat.  Twenty nineteen is a “throwback”, pre-global warming vintage, reminiscent of the great vintages in the 1980s (like 1983 and 1985) that put Willamette Valley on the worldwide Pinot Noir map.  Medium bodied, modest alcohol levels, and oozing with cool climate complexity.  Enjoy!
