BackgroundVineyard: Nicholas Estate, LIVE Certified Appellation: Chehalem Mountains, Oregon Barrels: 16% New French Oak Clones: 37% Dijon clone 667 17% Pommard 18% Dijon clone 115 13% Dijon clone 114 15% Dijon clone 777 Cases produced: 627 Bottled in recycled Ecoglass: 25% less weight than our previous glass. US made. Our flagship wine represents the entire vineyard with all five mature blocks of Pinot Noir included in the final blend. Plum, raspberries and dusty rose petals on the nose blend with pomegranate, tea and toasty spices on the palate. All framed by the vineyard’s signature minerality, silky texture and rich yet soft tannins.

PinotFileGood! Rusty Gaffney, PinotFile Light reddish-purple color in the glass. The nose has mostly oak-driven aromas initially, but becomes more fruity over time in the glass offering scents of red raspberries and red cherries. The wine has a light weight core of juicy cherry and blueberry fruit with an underpinning of oak.
