Cloudline Willamette Valley Pinot Noir

DESCRIPTION:

• • Created in 2002 by Dreyfus Ashby.
  • Always elegant, authentic Oregon Pinot Noir that would be approachable young.
  • All fruit is sourced from low-yield vineyards in the Willamette Valley.
  • 25% of the fruit comes from the famous Roserock Vineyard.
  • Since its debut, Cloudline has quietly become one of Oregon’s most successful brands.
  • Cloudline’s reputation is that of high-quality and value.
  • From the beginning, the Cloudline wines have been a hit with wine lovers in the U.S., and can now also be found in Brazil, Canada, Japan, Norway and Sweden.

The 2022 Vintage: 

• • 2022 started with an unconventional April frost and then a slow push after budbreak, putting us 2-3 weeks behind in many vineyards.
  • Spring humidity caused headaches, but vigilant farming and sunny summer skies prevailed, leading us into a more classic early October harvest and the gorgeous, complex 2022 vintage.

GRAPE VARIETY:

• • 100% Pinot Noir

FOOD PAIRINGS:

• • Pinot Noir is well-suited to pair with poultry, beef, fish, ham, lamb and pork.
  • It will play well with creamy sauces, spicy seasonings and may just be one of the world’s most versatile food wines.

TASTING NOTES:

• • Introducing the 2022 Cloudline Pinot Noir, our vibrant Willamette Valley cuvée.
  • Fresh, fruit forward and inviting, it brings fresh personality and lovely raspberry, cherry, and strawberry aromatics.
  • The mix of roundness, depth and a hint of fruit tartness plays well on the palate, creating a delightful, velvety touch.
