Winemaking All the separate Pinot noir lots were fermented either spontaneously or via a pied de cuve (vineyard native yeast cultivation) build up. We utilized varying techniques, including a significant portions of whole cluster in some of the Cassin, Eola Springs and Armstrong ferments and an all whole cluster carbonic fermentation from both Johan and Cassin Vineyards. This range aims to diversify the styles and texture of the juice and provide more spice, nuance and nerve in the wine. The Old World dynamics of 2022 play well with our winemaking style - really shining through in this bottling.

The Character
Overall A balanced and nuanced Pinot noir
Aromas Savory and significant, while ethereal at the same time
Tasting Notes A deep spicy, earthy undertone on the nose of the wine is followed by ripe rhubarb-strawberry crumble and cardamom on the palate, which is lithe and unique with a balance of fresh herbs and minerality. This wine really delivers for a baselevel Pinot.

The Story
The 2022 Pinot noir “Un” is anchored by Cassin Vineyard in the Yamhill-Carlton, a site we took over farming in 2018 and have farmed organically since. This bottling is also supported by five other top Willamette Valley Pinot Noir sites, including Temperance Hill, Johan, and Jubilee, to name a few, making it a top snapshot into the growing season through the lens of this region’s most famous grape.
