Brick House - Pinot Noir - Dijonnaise

Description

Overview: We planted the first vines around the old brick house in the sunny spring of 1990. Pinot Noir first, then Chardonnay and Gamay Noir. Every vine was planted with a commitment that was rare in the Willamette Valley at the time: Brick House was to be a certified organic farm. By 2005, we had achieved Demeter Biodynamic certification. Today, our southeast facing slopes on Ribbon Ridge host 45,000 vines, producing lovely fruit for estate-grown wines. At Brick House, the pledge to farm ‘in harmony with Mother Nature’ remains our lodestar...a covenant with our land.

Tasting Notes: Fresh, aromatic and juicy, this deliciously complex wine incorporates the extra texture of biodynamically farmed grapes, adding details and length. Citrus, berry, a dash of Dr Pepper soda and a solid foundation of stone make for a firm, age-worthy wine. It spent 15 months in one-third new French oak.

Pairing: Roast turkey, beet salad with goat cheese, mushroom pizza.
