Oregon’s Willamette Valley is ideal for cool climate grapes thanks to the Cascade Mountains on the east, the Coast Range on the west, and a series of lower hill chains on the extreme north. The resulting Pinot Noirs are some of our most graceful, with red fruits, a warm clay character and crisp acidity.
The most complete and complex Willamette Valley Pinot Noir that Siduri has ever produced. This is a wine that shows the character of the full Willamette Valley. Darker berry and currant flavors, along with hints of cherry joined by earth, dried brush, and even tobacco flavors.
The 2022 Siduri Willamette Valley Pinot Noir comes from vineyards in two distinctive appellations within the Willamette Valley: Yamhill-Carlton and Eola-Amity - plus a third vineyard in the Southern Willamette Valley, Maple Grove, that adds structure and richness. These three areas all bring different attributes to the blend and give us a broad range of flavors, accented by spice and earth notes, that blend to create a complex wine that is simultaneously rich and zippy. This vibrant Pinot Noir offers aromas of cranberry, sage and boysenberry. Bright, fresh acidity hits the palate with flavors of red plum and tea leaf. Juicy, modest texture in the mid-palate with delicate tannins.
