Varietal

Pinot Meunier

Pinot Meunier, a grape varietal renowned for its role in Champagne production, contributes distinctive qualities to sparkling wines worldwide. Originating from the Champagne region in France, it thrives in cooler climates and is prized for its reliability in ripening. While often overshadowed by Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, Pinot Meunier offers its own unique characteristics, presenting fruity notes of red berries, apples, and subtle spices. Its high acidity adds freshness and complexity to Champagne blends, balancing the richness contributed by other grapes. Beyond Champagne, Pinot Meunier is gaining recognition in still red and rosé wines for its versatility and ability to express terroir. As appreciation grows for the nuances of sparkling wines, Pinot Meunier stands as an essential component, defining the elegance and charm of many renowned cuvées.

Country

United States

Of all the New World wine countries, perhaps the one which has demonstrated the most flair for producing high quality wines - using a combination of traditional and forward-thinking contemporary methods - has been the United States of America. For the past couple of centuries, the United States has set about transforming much of its suitable land into vast vineyards, capable of supporting a wide variety of world-class grape varietals which thrive on both the Atlantic and the Pacific coastlines. Of course, we immediately think of sun-drenched California in regards to American wines, with its enormous vineyards responsible for the New World's finest examples of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot based wines, but many other states have taken to viticulture in a big way, with impressive results. Oregon, Washington State and New York have all developed sophisticated and technologically advanced wine cultures of their own, and the output of U.S wineries is increasing each year as more and more people are converted to their produce.

Region

Oregon

The beautiful state of Oregon has, over the past few decades, become increasingly well known and respected for its wine industry, with several small but significant wineries within the state receiving world wide attention for the quality of their produce. Whilst the first vineyards within Oregon were planted in the 1840s, the state's wine industry didn't really take off until the 1960s, when several wine producers from California discovered that the cooler regions of the state were ideal for cultivating various fine grape varietals. Today, Oregon has over four hundred and fifty wineries in operation, the vast majority of which are used for the production of wines made from Pinot Gris and Pinot Noir varietal grapes, both of which thrive in the valleys and mountainsides which characterise the landscape of the state.

Appellation

Willamette Valley

The beautiful wine region of Willamette Valley is located in Oregon, one of the main wine producing states of the USA. As in much of Oregon, Willamette Valley benefits enormously from the long, hot summers the state enjoys, and the mineral rich soils which typify the wine regions found there. Willamette Valley has built up a powerful reputation over the past few decades as one of the New World's leading producers of high quality, flavorful and characterful Pinot Noir wines, as the grapes of the Pinot Noir vine thrive particularly well in the region's climatic conditions. Willamette Valley is a fascinating wine region, and is a fine representative for the state of Oregon. Innovative techniques and wine making methods are fairly commonplace there, and the overall produce of the region seems to get better each year.

WA 96pts

Wine Advocate

The 2019 Pinot Meunier is expressive and detailed. It has a medium ruby color and aromas of wild red and black berries, orange peel, pipe tobacco, iodine and leather. The medium-bodied palate features restrained, mineral-driven fruit, chalky tannins, mouthwatering acidity and a long, spicy finish that calls you in for another sip.

Mushrooms, earth, raspberries, mulberries and crushed cherry stones here. Orange pith, too. Relatively firm but fine carpet of tannins, giving structure. Medium-bodied, creamy and complex. 375 cases produced. From organically grown grapes. Drink now.
