Description
The Gran Moraine Vineyard, nestled within the Willamette Valley AVA, is the source for some of Oregon's finest pinot noir. Tucked up in the foothills of the Coastal Range, the vineyard is cooler than most, and delivers pinot noir with fresh red fruit, fine tannins and chalky acidity. Aged in large, mostly used oak barrels to lend subtle spice without overpowering the delicate fruit.

RECENT TASTING NOTES
Sonoma: Another Brilliant Vintage in 2018There are two releases from Oregon. Starting with the 2018 Pinot Noir Siduri Gran Moraine Vineyard, it has a medium ruby/translucent color to go with a vibrant, juicy array of red plums, violets, candied orange peel, and spice. It's nicely textured, medium-bodied, and has wonderful purity of fruit. Drink it any time over the coming 7-8 years or more.
