The 2021 Willamette Valley Pinot noir is a blend made to capture the freshness of the vintage. To achieve this, barrels were selected roughly halfway through our more stan- dard 15 months of barrel aging and bottled early so we could preserve the bright fruit character. Additionally, second year oak barrels were preferentially selected to achieve pleasant oak nuances while not overpowering the blend. The resulting wine is thus modestly oaked and fruit focused.

The Estate

Lemelson Vineyards began as a dream — a dream to create a winery that celebrates innovation in technology, sustainability in agriculture, and tradition in winemaking. Eric Lemelson started Lemelson Vineyards with the intention of building something that would not only serve our consumers, but also the longevity of the pristine state that he calls home. Utilizing organic farming methods and gravity flow production, we craft estate grown Pinot noir, Pinot gris, Chardonnay, and Riesling from some of the finest vineyards in the Willamette Valley.
