Only 300 cases produced!
Flavor Notes
Brooks has it all — Great story, great people, great wines.
A beautiful Pinot Noir from the Columbia Gorge, lighter-bodied with firm tannins and notes of red plum skin, raspberry bramble, and oolong tea.
Sommelier
Notes of Herb de Provence, wet gravel, herbal tea, red currants, and dried flower. Pair it with chevre rolled in dried herbs with black tea syrup, pomegranate seeds, and slices of rustic baguette.

Winemaking Notes
2021 Vintage:
Rain events at the beginning of bloom diminished yields, and a dry summer was punctuated with unprecedented heatwaves. The timing worked in our favor since the heat happened pre-veraison, and the vines handled it well.
Harvest started in early September, but lower temperatures across the state allowed for a long and measured harvest season, with harvest extending into mid-October.
No disease, high sugars, balanced acids, and great flavors. 2021 will undoubtedly rank as one of the top Oregon vintages.
