    A vibrant Pinot Noir that captures the essence of Oregon, offering a refreshing balance and light to medium body. One of our wine club members say it best below, “WOW! A nice pinot at this incredible price. Smooth, good balance of fruit and tannin. Buy more.”

    Lot 920 is a quintessential Oregon Pinot Noir, a delicate dance of bright red fruit, light and balanced acidity, and a harmonious blend of earthy, vanilla, and oak elements. It’s a lighter, more ethereal Pinot than your typical, but bears the unmistakable mark of Willamette’s maritime climate – a dry summer sun that ripens grapes to perfection.

    Whether you're hosting a casual afternoon gathering or a cozy evening meal, this wine pairs beautifully with a variety of flavors. Start with a hard cheese plate – Parmigiano-Reggiano or Pecorino Romano, their nutty, salty flavors complement the wine’s acidity. Follow with a crispy, thin-crust pizza, topped with cured meats for a savory contrast, and layer roasted red peppers, artichoke hearts, or grilled mushrooms for a touch of earthiness. Consider adding crumbles of goat cheese or fontina for a more complex flavor. And for dessert, a fruit tart with fresh berries or stone fruits will highlight the wine’s fruitiness.

    You can never have too much Oregon Pinot Noir, my friends. In 2022, we set off on a Pinot adventure across the Pacific Northwest, digging into the heart of Willamette, Applegate, and Illinois Valleys. Let me tell you, that growing season? It was one wild ride—cool and crisp at the start, then heating up right before harvest, pushing those grapes to perfection. But here’s where the magic happens: Our dynamic source winery in Oregon took that perfect ripeness and blended it with grapes from both Southern Oregon’s Applegate and Illinois Valleys.

    Let’s break it down: You’re looking at at least 9 flavors and aromas working in perfect harmony from blended fruit from 2 unique AVAs, bringing all of Oregon's character and depth. If you want a light, elegant Pinot Noir with 0 compromises, buy Lot 920 today. Cheers to that, folks!
