Phelps Creek Vineyards farms the rolling hills of Oregon's Columbia Gorge, an emerging cool-climate AVA that shares meaningful similarities with Burgundy, crafting Pinot Noir with real terroir expression.
The 2019 vintage benefited from a long, temperate growing season that allowed the fruit to ripen slowly and develop remarkable aromatic complexity.
Bright ruby in the glass, it offers an inviting bouquet of wild strawberry, raspberry compote and rose petals, lifted by hints of forest floor and baking spice. The palate is finely textured, with supple tannins carrying red berry flavours wrapped in clove, vanilla and earth, and a fresh, mineral-driven core that keeps every sip vibrant. Equally suited to herb-crusted salmon, mushroom risotto or a casual charcuterie board.
