Bergspitze' Laurel Vineyard Chehalem Mtns Pinot Noir 2020
The fruit is grown on the top of Bald Peak in the Chehalem Mountains at 1250 feet
elevation, hence we call this wine "Bergspitze" which means mountain top in German.
100% Alsatian Coury clones brought back in a suitcase by Charles Coury and planted
in Oregon in 1965. The wine delivers the typical characteristics of this vineyard, lighter
colored but deep in aromatics of bright fruit notes of cherry and white raspberry with a
slight dusting of chalkiness. The finish is long and keeps your palate reminded of what
you just sipped until the next taste. This wine is light enough to pair with seafood and
can hold up to pork and beef.”
