Cumberland Reserve
Willamette Valley AVA
Named for the road where our family grew up in Portland, Oregon, our Cumberland Reserve represents a blend of some of the finest barrels from our five estate-farmed vineyards, all carefully combined to showcase Oregon Pinot Noir at its best. Our Cumberland Reserve is the epitome of the Bergström style-the expression of a unique vintage’s character combined with the perfect marriage of spice, mineral, and fresh fruit flavors.
Josh Bergström's Notes
*updated January 2025
Bright red cherry, bruised strawberry, and red delicious apple skin provide a vibrant opening, with a great concentration of fruit, including dark raspberry. Light touches of herbs de Provence and dried roses add depth. On the palate, the wine is fruit-forward with notes of clove and dried cranberries, alongside hints of forest floor, cola, and exotic wood spice. The tannins remain powerful, with cocoa powder nuances, yet are beautifully refined after time in bottle. Lush oak spice adds a complementary dimension, balancing the wine’s energetic brightness and rich, copious tannins.
