The 2021 Van Duzer Estate Pinot Noir is crafted from the winery's estate vineyards in the famous Van Duzer Corridor. This corridor is a gap in the coastal mountain range that funnels cool Pacific Ocean breezes into the Willamette Valley. Combine this windy, cool weather with the region's marine soils and you get the PERFECT conditions for elegant Pinot Noir! Winemaker Eric Misiewicz brings his experience making wine in Spain, Australia, New York, and Napa Valley to Willamette Valley. Van Duzer is a L.I.V.E. certified winery, promoting sustainable practices in wine production.
This Pinot shows a light-bodied elegance we love from classic old-school Oregon. From the glass, you'll enjoy the delicate aromas of pomegranate, cranberry, rose petals, and earth. Add flavors of wildly juicy red cherries, raspberries, and strawberries to a delicate tannin profile and the result is a beautifully fresh and crushable style.
From the Van Duzer Corridor, the land of evening winds and diurnal shifts, comes this balanced Pinot Noir. The wine's dominant black-cherry aroma pairs beautifully with notes of loamy soil and a roasted pork sandwich. A smooth texture is home to flavors like blackberry and lemon tarts.
