ET FILLE

WILLAMETTE VALLEY PINOT NOIR

We love blending Pinot Noir from multiple vineyards. This process epitomizes the confluence of art and science. We use our scientific backgrounds to begin with an analytic hypothesis-driven approach, but our love of art takes over once we start engaging our senses and letting the combinations take us in surprising directions. Our goal with this blend is to allow the complexity of the Willamette Valley to reveal itself in an honest representation of the vintage.

Appellation: 100% Willamette Valley (Dundee Hills, Yamhill-Carlton, and Eola-Amity Hills)
Certifications: Two vineyards L.I.V.E. Certified; one farmed organically and 
biodynamically

Winemaker Notes: This is a classic trench coat that elevates whatever it is paired with in a simple manner that doesn’t need to be overthought. The nose of raspberry and cassis has a hint of Brie and thyme. The palate follows with cherry, plum, and thyme, ending with a relatively long finish.

HEREDITY PINOT NOIR

The Heredity Pinot Noir is our reserve blend, for which we select some of our favorite barrels of a vintage and combine them in a way that we feel optimizes its aroma and mouthfeel. We have the latitude to keep tweaking until we wind up with a wine that we feel evokes the essence of the vintage in a balanced and complex manner

Varietal: 100% Pinot Noir
Production: 295 Cases
Certification: 3 Vineyard L.I.V.E. Certified Sustainable, with the fourth farmed organically and biodynamically.

Winemaker Notes: If this were a car, it would be a Maserati… sensual lines, overt, expressive, and powerful. It has an aroma of black cherry, caramel, brown sugar, and thyme. Its savory on the palate and is rich, round, soft, yet structured. Its long brawny finish is accented with cola.

PALMER CREEK VINEYARD PINOT NOIR

We have produced single vineyard Pinot Noir from the lovely Palmer Creek Vineyard in the Eola-Amity Hills of Oregon since our first year. Palmer Creek is meticulously tended by owners Janet and Larry Richards. The vineyard is LIVE certified, which affirms the Richards’ commitment to be environmentally aware and sustainable in their viticulture practices.

Production:                 142 cases
Certification:               L.I.V.E. Certified Sustainable

Winemaker Notes: This wine reminds me of Kate Middleton, Duchess of Cambridge… poised, lean, structured, precise, and elegant. The complex nose has layers of candied cherry, cinnamon, and nori. The palate carries the umami and hints of orange peel. It has a linear mouthfeel with blueberry on the long finish.
