Flavor Notes
Brooks has it all — Great story, great people, great wines.
Accessible and smooth with prominent dark fruit notes and lifted notes of black tea and rose petals on the finish.
Sommelier
Enjoy with a dark chocolate mousse, double chocolate ice cream, flaky sea salt and a drizzle of salted caramel.
Chef
Our only Columbia Gorge pinot noir, the 2019 Terrue is a highly drinkable wine showing off notes of black tea, candied red fruit and chanterelle. On the palate this wine is lush and juicy, with dark red fruit and framed by sturdy tannins.

Winemaking Notes
A wet, but warm spring with a few mild frosts during late April and fewer than average heat spikes.
Near-record precipitation amounts during late June and early July brought increased disease pressure to the region.
The vintage will be remembered for the early rains in September and rapid cool down into October which challenged harvesting decisions.
The cool vintage came largely from substantially lower maximum temperatures while minimum temperatures were near average to slightly above average.
A classic Oregon vintage!
