Vintage
The summer of 2014 was a hot, beautiful breezy 90 to 100-degree season, filled with sunshine in the valley. The growing season’s heat stretched on
into the fall. With the sun shining and the nights cooling, pinot noir was in its happy place. Winemakers picked in perfect weather and at ideally
perfect ripeness. The 2014 vintage has all the class and balance of a classic outstanding Oregon Vintage. With the supple creamy texture of fruit and structure, this outstanding vintage melts into your senses now and will continue with great age for the next 20 years.
