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.
Home of some of the planet’s most amazingly elegant and expressive Pinot noir, the Willamette Valley is a pastoral, mixed landscape of green, bucolic rolling hills, dramatic forestlands and small, independent, friendly wine growers. As a leader in environmental stewardship, the valley has some of the nation’s most protective land use policies, with two-thirds of its vineyards farmed sustainably and over half, organically. While the valley claims a cool, continental climate, and is heavily influenced by the cold, moist winds of the Pacific Ocean, its warm and dry summers allow for the steady, even ripening of Pinot noir.
The potential of Willamette Valley Pinot noir continues to attract the investment of serious growers and winemakers both locally and from abroad, as naturally the finished wines bring accolades from professionals and enthusiasts. With a range of styles from delicate dried cherry, raspberry and hibiscus to stronger notes of truffle, mocha, plum and spice, a fine Willamette Valley Pinot noir is a perfect expression of both character and grace.
