Wine Description:
The Kudos Willamette Valley Pinot Noir is a distinguished blend sourced from various vineyard sites across several American Viticultural Areas (AVAs). Combining fruit from Dundee Hills, McMinnville, Chehalem Mountains, and the broader Willamette Valley, the wine draws its complexity from over seven distinct vineyard locations, each contributing unique characteristics shaped by their individual soils and microclimates. This harmonious blend presents a medley of red, blue, and black fruits, meticulously balanced through weeks of thoughtful blending. Emphasizing a hands-off approach in winemaking, the team at Kudos prioritizes the expression of terroir, allowing the vineyards' inherent qualities to shine. With diverse soil types, elevations, and clone selections, coupled with varied aging techniques, including stainless steel and French oak, the resulting wine exhibits depth, breadth, and a true representation of the Willamette Valley's terroir. Supported by a team of skilled winemakers, the Kudos Pinot Noir exemplifies the region's rich viticultural heritage and commitment to crafting exceptional wines.
