The 2021 Pinot Noir Paul Gerrie Vineyard was fermented with 40% whole clusters, and the wine was matured for 18 months in 45% new French oak. It's bursting with a kaleidoscopic perfume of strawberry, raspberry and pomegranate and nuances of lavender, licorice and bitters. The light-bodied palate is elegantly styled, with understated, spicy fruit, vibrant acidity, chalky tannins and a very long, layered finish. It opens dramatically as it airs in the glass and will benefit from time in a decanter

Oregon is a state located in the Pacific Northwest region of the United States. It is known for its diverse geography, ranging from the rugged coastline to the Cascade Mountains and the high desert in the east. The wine industry in Oregon has been growing steadily since the 1960s, with a focus on producing high-quality Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and other cool-climate varietals.

The Willamette Valley is the most well-known wine region in Oregon, and it is home to over 500 wineries. The valley is known for its cool, wet climate, which is ideal for growing Pinot Noir grapes. The region's volcanic soils also contribute to the unique character of the wines produced here.

The Rogue Valley is another important wine region in Oregon, located in the southern part of the state. The region is known for its warm, sunny climate, which is ideal for growing Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, and other warm-climate varietals. The region's diverse soils, which range from volcanic to alluvial, also contribute to the unique character of the wines produced here.

The Columbia Gorge AVA is a relatively new wine region in Oregon, located in the Columbia River Gorge. The region is known for its dramatic scenery, with steep cliffs and waterfalls, as well as its diverse microclimates. The region produces a wide range of varietals, including Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Syrah, and Cabernet Sauvignon.

Overall, Oregon is a diverse and exciting wine region that is known for producing high-quality, terroir-driven wines. Whether you are a fan of cool-climate Pinot Noir or warm-climate Cabernet Sauvignon, there is something for everyone in Oregon's wine country.
