From vineyard to bottle

The origin, grapes and craftsmanship behind this wine.

Gran Moraine's wines are slowly but surely conquering the world. Based in Oregon, they're slowly but surely winning everyone over with their irresistible wines. With a driving force like Kendall Jackson behind them, these wines are sure to thrive. This Pinot Noir, in particular, has everyone raving about this winery. It's refined and elegant, with incredible depth. Just as a Pinot Noir should be: bold yet incredibly delicious.

What makes Gran Moraine's wines unique is that they are not located in the well-known California, but in the state of Oregon. While it's a given that most American wine comes from California, other states are also actively involved in wine production. Oregon's unique location is its location. Because it's much further north, the climate here is also cooler. It's sometimes called the Burgundy of America, partly because the terroir is similar to Burgundy. The vines on which Gran Moraine's grapes are grafted are also French. Similarities abound with France's most elegant wine region.

Pinot Noir is sometimes described as somewhat stubborn. Not always very accessible. Criticisms of Pinot Noir vanish as soon as you savor Gran Moraine Yamhill Carlton Pinot Noir. It's a glass of red wine that truly delights your senses. With every sip, new, distinct aromas are released. The aroma is generous and exuberant. You smell guava and strawberries, but also a wealth of fragrant flowers. A spicy palate develops on the nose, with lemongrass, thyme, and tarragon predominating.
