Grape Varietal
Pinot Noir
Pinot Noir is one of the world’s most revered red grapes, celebrated for its finesse, aromatic complexity, and transparent expression of terroir. Native to Burgundy, it produces elegant wines marked by red cherry, raspberry, and floral aromas with silky tannins and bright acidity. Equally captivating in Champagne, Oregon, and New Zealand, Pinot Noir reflects its growing environment with subtlety and precision, making it a true benchmark of elegance and balance.
