A true expression of Oregon Pinot Noir! A vibrant, complex nose opens with floral, stone fruit and berry aromas - rose petal, violet, pomegranate, plum cherry, raspberry, black currant, boysenberry - that deepen with spice and wood notes - cinnamon, white pepper, thyme, vanilla, cedar, sandalwood, chocolate. Gentle oak aging adds definition supporting a delicious, harmonious balance between tannin, acid and fruit.

A pretty, versatile wine that will pair neatly with many different proteins, from salmon to pork to duck to venison, as well as earthy, and rustic vegetables, and bright-red to black fruits like cherry, cranberry, or plum.

A to Z Wineworks was started in 2002 by Oregon wine industry veterans: Deb Hatcher (Eyrie), Bill Hatcher (Domaine Drouhin Oregon), Sam Tannahill (Archery Summit) and Cheryl Francis (Chehalem). The two couples worked in the Hatcher's kitchen to build the original blend honoured by Food & Wine magazine as the Best American Pinot Noir under $20. Recognition for A to Z wines as offering dependable quality for great value continues today making A to Z the top-selling Oregon wine brand.

The A to Z Oregon Pinot Gris is refreshing and lithe on the palate. Aromas of Meyer lemon, lemon verbena, tangerine, apricot, peach, apple, pear, quince, melon and honeysuckle add a hint of sweetness to the air around it. The weight is impeccable with perfect balance and integration hitting all points of the palate. Incredibly versatile at the dinner table with flavors of golden apple, roasted coconut, citrus and pineapple appealing to the last splash in the glass.

Seriously, this wine goes with just about everything, all the time, including nothing, which is sometimes a fine option, too.

A legacy winery in Oregon's Willamette Valley that has been making elegant Pinot Noir for over 35 years. In 2007, the Rex Hill team joined forces with the folks behind A to Z, another tour de force in the Oregon wine scene, which has enabled this winery to focus on creating boutique wines with a commitment to superior quality. The wines made at Rex Hill are not made out of necessity, but rather a pure love of the craft. 

The 2018 Pinot Noir is a stylish wine aged for up to 10 months in French oak barrels. Initial aromas are rich with dark berry fruits and pomegranate notes wrapped in mulling spices that give way to more savoury flavours of graphite, tobacco and a touch of meatiness. The palate reveals dark plums and cherries, subtle but toasty spices from the oak and velvety tannins all bolstered by a verve of well-judged acidity. 

A refined Pinot such as this will compliment classic food pairings such as poached salmon and mushroom risotto, but will also lend favour to a veggie stir fry flavoured with hoisin and Chinese five spice.
