THE WINE

An ancestral Burgundian blend – Passetoutgrain is a blend of 2/3 Gamay and 1/3 Pinot Noir. Winegrowers were traditionally allowed to create a blend of the two grapes when blocks were planted with a mix of the two cultivars. When harvesting they would “pick them all” or “passetoutgrain”.

A fresh, fruit-layered and ethereal wine that leads with delicate red fruit and immediate appeal. The nose offers bright and vibrant red fruit notes with a touch of spice from the Gamay Noir and a touch of rose petal, forest floor and black cherries from the Pinot Noir. Nicely textured, it develops roundness and amplitude emboldened by spice and hints of licorice.

THE AVA

Framed by the Coast Range mountains to the west and Cascade Mountains to the east, the Willamette Valley AVA forms a cool-climate growing basin ideally suited for the production of traditional Burgundian varieties. With an array of different soil types and microclimates, the quality and complexity of Willamette Valley wine has garnered a fierce international reputation.
