Erath Pinot Noir Oregon
13% ABV | Oregon Pinot Noir | 750mL | Elegant & Fruit-Forward Red Wine
Process & Profile
Erath Pinot Noir Oregon is a signature expression of Willamette Valley winemaking — crafted to showcase the purity, finesse, and approachability of Pinot Noir grown in the cool-climate vineyards of Oregon. Grapes are carefully selected from a variety of vineyard sites to ensure balanced fruit, vibrant acidity, and delicate structure.
Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks to preserve bright aromatics, while aging in a combination of French oak barrels and neutral vessels helps round out the texture without overwhelming the wine's natural freshness. The result is a fruit-driven, silky Pinot Noir that captures the elegance and energy of Oregon’s premier wine regions.
