Bergström Vineyard: A Bergström Wines Estate
Planted 1999 * Dundee Hills AVA * Elevation: 380ft
Our original estate and our family’s North Star located in the iron-rich volcanic soils of the Dundee Hills. The Bergström Vineyard is 13 acres of south and southeast facing vines bathing in the cool northerly sunlight and overlooking the expansive and rich Willamette Valley stretching south for one hundred miles. Optimum elevation and exposure provides ideal ripening potential for our most powerful, yet elegant expression of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, annually adorned with flowers, fruit, savory herbs and spices, and ferrous minerals.

Josh Bergström's Notes
The 2018 Bergström Vineyard Pinot Noir has a lovely light burgundy color with youthful violet-like tints at the rim of the glass. A classic aromatic bouquet of roses, violets, dried sweet and savory garden herbs, gingerbread, roasted meat, campfire and forest floor. This Pinot Noir is expressive with dark red fruits, cherries, black raspberries, plum and sweet spices and has a long, serious, fine tannin structure. This is a very serious wine and a classic in the making. Delicious now but holds so much potential for the future.
