Tasting Notes

"Fresh red and dark cherries are framed in aromas of fine-ground baking spice here. The palate has a very smooth, refined feel with long, silky tannins, swirling around a core of fresh, red-cherry and berry flavor. Their finest release under this estate label. Drink or hold."

The Producer

Stoller

For Bill Stoller, the purchase of the family property marked a significant milestone in his connection to the estate. Having worked on the family farm during his youth and later served as a partner at Chehalem, their sister winery, Bill possessed a deep understanding of how the sloped, rocky terrain with low-yielding soil was perfectly suited for a world-class vineyard.

His father and uncle bought the farm in 1943 with the intention of raising turkeys. Over the following five decades, they transformed it from a small family venture into one of Oregon’s largest, boasting nearly 700,000 free-range turkeys at its peak. When operations ceased in 1993, Bill saw an opportunity to acquire the land, envisioning a lasting legacy for both the property and Oregon's wine industry.

Bill's foresight was grounded in practical knowledge gained from his involvement with Chehalem. With the guidance of Burgundian winemaker Patrice Rion and local vineyard experts, he confirmed that the very characteristics that made the land unsuitable for traditional crops made it ideal for a vineyard of exceptional quality.

In 1995, Bill began planting 10 acres each of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. Drawing on the expertise of viticulturists and employing innovative vineyard techniques, he focused on maximizing grape quality. Today, the vineyard spans 225 acres, with 70% dedicated to Pinot Noir, 25% to Chardonnay, and 5% to various other varieties, including Aligoté, Gamay Noir, Pinot Blanc, Pinot Meunier, Riesling, Tempranillo, Syrah, and Viognier.
