2023 Teutonic Wine Company 'Bergspitze' Laurel Vineyard Chehalem Mtns. Pinot Noir, 750ml

(Pinot Noir) *Organic - All cool climate, all the time. Teutonic Wine Company is a small-production winery that strives to make the finest German-style wines in Oregon. The climate in Germany's Mosel region, famed for producing some of the worlds finest Rieslings, is ideal because of its cooler growing climate which allows the fruit to hang longer on the vines without over ripening. A longer hang time gives the fruit more time to pull up complex flavors from the soil. Therefore, the vineyard sites Teutonic sources its fruit in Oregon are located in cooler areas and at higher elevations. They only work with dry-farmed vineyards (non-irrigated farms) so that the roots grow deep into the earth, drilling through many layers of soil strata, absorbing the various mineral components from the terroir. - Teutonic Wines.
