Streamlined and silky, bright cherries and dusty roses just out of the soil combine to show off a desirable and intriguing Oregon Pinot that finishes long with anise, cocoa and sweet spice.
In vineyards nestled between the Pacific Ocean and the Cascade Mountains, sun and rain work in tandem as these growers cultivate Brella’s pristine grapes. The result? A lush pinot noir with exceptional red berry fruits, spicy notes, and soft tannins. Brella is sophisticated yet infinitely drinkable at any meal or occasion, from a dinner party to a backyard barbecue to an evening at home. Share Brella, and highlight your great taste with great wine.
While the Willamette Valley and Pinot Noir are a like a fairy tale match made in heaven, most of Oregon is in fact, a glorious source of Pinot noir. Claiming over half of its total area under vine, Pinot noir also thrives in Southern Oregon’s Umpqua and Rogue Valleys where sedimentary and volcanic soils dominate hillside vineyards and cool temperatures create the perfect environment for Pinot noir. Also, Oregon’s Columbia Gorge is becoming increasingly popular for Pinot noir production. What sets Oregon Pinot noir apart from the Pinot of other regions, both New and Old World, is its innate combination of grace with both power and restraint.
