WINE DESCRIPTION

Bethel Heights Estate Pinot Noir is a premium wine produced by Bethel Heights Vineyard, a family-owned winery located in the Eola-Amity Hills AVA of Oregon. The wine is made from Pinot Noir grapes grown in the estate vineyards, which are situated on a series of rolling hills with diverse soils and microclimates. The winemaking process involves careful selection of the best grapes, gentle handling, and aging in French oak barrels to enhance the wine's complexity and depth. The resulting wine is a classic example of Oregon Pinot Noir, with a medium-bodied, silky texture, and flavors of red and black fruits, earth, and spice. It is a versatile wine that pairs well with a variety of foods and occasions.

NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

This Bethel Heights Estate Pinot Noir is an excellent example of Oregon's finest varietal.The nose is aromatic, with aromas of fresh red berry fruits and a hint of earthy spice. On the palate, it displays a silky texture and ripe flavors of cranberry, raspberry, and cherry. The finish is vibrant and long, with a lingering hint of oak. A perfect balance between acidity and tannins makes this a delightful, complex, and truly enjoyable Pinot Noir.

ORIGINS

Winery: Bethel Heights

Region: Oregon

Oregon is a state in the Pacific Northwest region of the United States, located between Washington to the north and California to the south. It is known for its diverse landscape of forests, mountains, rivers, and high desert, and for its vibrant wine industry. Oregon's wine industry dates back to the mid-1800s, when the first vineyards were planted in the Willamette Valley. The region was largely forgotten until the 1960s, when a group of pioneering winemakers began to experiment with Pinot Noir and other cool-climate varieties. Since then, Oregon has become one of the most important wine regions in the United States, with over 500 wineries and more than 1,000 vineyards.
