Winemaker Notes

This wine is sleek and elegant, redolent of hibiscus tea, fresh cherry, cinnamon bark, and nutmeg. These aromas are echoed on the palate and framed by finessed, fine-grained tannins.

Professional Ratings

    Pretty and inviting, the medium-bodied 2021 Pinot Noir Breaking Ground pours a ripe ruby color and has a perfume of rose petal, wild raspberry, and wet stone. It moves seamlessly to the palate with a weightless feel, fine tannins, and a clean freshness of lift on the finish. It is elegant and easy-drinking, though it will have some longevity for sure.

    This has a dusty character with spices, chocolate orange, red plums, cherries and blueberries. Smooth and supple with a medium body and silky texture. Refreshing and flavorful.

  • 91

    The wine’s earthy aromas of loam and wild mushrooms are joined by a sweet blackberry and lilac note that is perfumelike. Vigorous acidity and silky tannins back flavors of tangy red raspberries, cacao nibs and a trace of spicy Ligurian olive oil. Such a lively Pinot Noir

Thin-skinned, finicky and temperamental, Pinot Noir is also one of the most rewarding grapes to grow and remains a labor of love for some of the greatest vignerons in Burgundy. Fairly adaptable but highly reflective of the environment in which it is grown, Pinot Noir prefers a cool climate and requires low yields to achieve high quality. Outside of France, outstanding examples come from in Oregon, California and throughout specific locations in wine-producing world. Somm Secret—André Tchelistcheff, California’s most influential post-Prohibition winemaker decidedly stayed away from the grape, claiming “God made Cabernet. The Devil made Pinot Noir.”

Chehalem Mountains Wine

Willamette Valley, Oregon

View all products

The Chehalem Mountains is a northwest-southeast span of several distinct mountains, ridges and peaks in the northern part of the Willamette Valley. Of all of Willamette Valley's smaller AVAs, it is closest to the city of Portland. Its highest summit, Bald Peak at an elevation of 1,633 feet, serves to generate cooler air for the rest of the AVA and its hillside vineyards. The region covers 70,000 acres but only 1,600 acres are planted to vines; soils of the Chehalem Mountains are a mix of basalt, ocean sediment and loess.
