Stoller Family Estate Dundee Hills Pinot Noir 2021: A Masterpiece of Sustainable Oregon Winemaking

Crafted from sustainably farmed vineyards in Oregon’s renowned Dundee Hills AVA, this Stoller Family Estate Pinot Noir embodies the essence of Willamette Valley terroir. Blending clones grown across their estate vineyards, this wine delivers complexity and elegance shaped by meticulous attention to detail.

With accolades including James Suckling’s 94-point rating praising its “juicy vibrancy” and “silky texture,” alongside Vinous’ 91-point commendation for its “focused palate” and “long spicy finish,” this bottle is a testament to quality craftsmanship. The nose bursts with perfumed red fruit aromas—think ripe raspberries and red plums—interwoven with wildflowers and subtle earthy undertones reminiscent of forest floor after rain. Hints of baking spice add warmth without overpowering the delicate balance of flavors shaped by neutral French oak aging over nearly a year.

On the palate, this medium-bodied Pinot Noir showcases sleek tannins and lively acidity that create an inviting mouthfeel perfect for pairing with salmon dishes or charcuterie boards. The seamless integration of whole-berry fermentation gives this wine its crisp freshness while allowing dark cherry and boysenberry notes to unfold gradually against a backdrop of smoky spice complexity—a signature of Dundee Hills’ cool-climate growing conditions.

Certified sustainable practices ensure every sip supports environmentally conscious winemaking traditions valued by modern consumers seeking premium quality without compromise. At 13.5% alcohol by volume, it offers approachable richness now yet promises further depth if cellared until its peak maturity after 2023+.

Whether enjoyed young or aged thoughtfully this limited-release expression captures Dundee Hills’ unique character through refined fruit purity and structured finesse—a standout choice for discerning wine lovers seeking authentic Oregon Pinot Noir excellence at an accessible price point.*
