Legacy: Our Reserve Pinot Noir bottlings make up some of the best bottles of Pinot Noir in our portfolio. Typically coming from our estate vineyard, or vineyards that display unique characteristics (such as highly prized soil, altitude, etc), opening a bottle of our Reserve Pinot is truly a celebration. Although our Reserve Pinot Noirs can be enjoyed at the time of release, we strongly encourage cellaring for these wines, as they display significant evolution as they age in bottle. One of our favorite recommendations for our Reserves is to cellar two or more bottles, opening them at 6 month increments to observe and enjoy the incredible progression of the wine.

Legacy: Our Barrel Select process is a process unique to our vineyard that was created by our founder, David Teppola, back in the 1980's. As the barrels age, they are closely monitored by our Winemaker for one of two (or both) qualities - first, a barrel of exceptionally delicious quality, or second, a barrel that is showing immense promise as it ages. The very top barrels are selected and blended together to create a unique blending that reflects the Teppola family's interpretation as to what aromas and flavors exemplify that vinrtage, and set it apart from other years. Ultimately, a Barrel Select Pinot Noir represents the top 8 to 10% of barrels in any vintage of Pinot Noir.

Legacy: 

In French, cuvée simply means "blend." This very special cuvée is a Southern Oregon Pinot Noir - one that we didn't intend to make! As wildfires raged in 2018, Southern Oregon Fruit Growers were facing bankruptcy after a contract with California based vintner fell through. Feeling compelled to help our neighbors in Southern Oregon, we took on as much of the fruit as we could to help save the vineyards and support our Oregon Wine Community - the true spirit of the Oregon Wine Industry. A portion of every bottle sale is donated to the Oregon Community Fund, an organization that restores areas that have been affected by wildfires. 

Serve at cellar tempterature, or slightly cooler than room temperature. Enjoy now through 2028.
