SUNU 100% Pinot Noir, Willamette Valley is a snapshot of multiple vineyard sites, clonal selections, and winemaking techniques and represents the marine sedimentary soils that we find so compelling in Northern Oregon. It’s a blend of each of our blocks, with individual barrels selected based on their early approachability and youthful generosity. An absolutely incredible value, it’s elegant, complex, and unmistakably Willamette Valley.
"A mix of all the single vineyards they work with, the 2021 Pinot Noir reveals a translucent ruby hue to go with a powerful, savory, medium-bodied style as well as notes of mulled cherries, redcurrants, sassafras, orange blossom, and spice. It's textured and nicely balanced, with plenty of fruit and fine tannins."
