A to Z has worked over the years with more than 100 Oregon vineyards, noting different profiles within each region, soil type, elevation and aspect. Individual vineyard sites result in different fruit, tannin and acidity profiles. The 2021 A to Z 'The Essence of Oregon' Pinot Noir is a blend of the most select fruit from ten different Oregon vineyards and tended as 15 different fermentations. After aging in small French oak barrels, the result is a single cuvée crafted to show an Oregon vintage at its best.
