Brooks Pinot Noir Willamette Valley 2021

When the founder of Brooks Winery, Jimi Brooks, passed away at age 38, his family committed to carrying on his dream of making excellent Willamette Valley wines. Currently managed by Jimi’s sister, Janie Brooks Heuck, Brooks endeavors to do good in and for the world as a certified B corporation. This pinot noir, sourced from select vineyards from around the Willamette Valley region, is a beautifully balanced, dark-fruited example. After destemming, it ages for ten months in French oak. Both rich and fresh on the palate, it has earthy black cherry flavors wrapped in velvety tannins. Sustainably grown.
