Beaux Freres "The Belles Soeurs" Pinot Noir 2021
We have 3 in stock (Inventory is live and accurate)
What started out as a pig farm now makes some of the most profound wines in the New World, and especially Oregon. Brothers (Freres) bought the land back in ‘86 and moved their family from Colorado to the Pacific Northwest. The wines evolved into excellence after a period of discovery, after easing up on extraction in the mid-90s to showcase the style we know today. The wines are a tier above what most other wineries only hope to achieve, and are hella capable of aging for decades.
We ship wine to most states with a $100 minimum order for shipping. We don't ship spirits nor beer.
Weather shipping advisory: Orders placed during times of extreme heat or extreme cold will be held for no charge until more favorable weather returns.
The Willamette Valley, nestled in Oregon, is a region renowned for its cool-climate wines, particularly its Pinot Noir. While Pinot Noir is its most celebrated variety, the valley is also home to other cool climate varieties like Chardonnay and Riesling. The region's unique terroir, characterized by rolling hills, volcanic and sedimentary soils, and a maritime climate influence, contributes to the elegance and complexity of its wines. The wines of the Willamette Valley offer a delicate balance between fruit, acidity, and earthiness. Its increasingly reputation places it among the world’s top regions for Pinot Noir.
Willamette Valley
Pinot Noir is a thin-skinned, notoriously difficult-to-grow, low-yielding grape that finds its ancestral home in Burgundy, France, where it produces some of the world's most elegant and nuanced wines. While Burgundy remains its spiritual heartland, Pinot Noir has since traveled the globe, finding success in other cooler climates, notably in California, Oregon, New Zealand, and Germany. This grape is a challenge for any grower, as it requires specific conditions to show its best, and yet the wines it produces are capable of such a captivating and singular character.
