Tasting Notes
The 2022 Chehalem Mountains Pinot Noir is from Hollis Vineyard, a high elevation site on volcanic soils. This is only the second vintage we've bottled a wine from this site and we couldn't be more pleased with the results. The wine is rich without being heavy, with grippy tannins and an opulent mouth feel. Flavors of fresh cedar, cane berries, pomegranate, and blackberries are seamlessly woven together.
