A smoky blend of wild herbs, ground ginger and crushed raspberries smolders up from the 2021 Thea’s Selection Pinot Noir. It’s softly textured with cooling minerality and pure red berry fruits underscored by saline minerals. Zesty acidity adds a liveliness through the finish as the 2021 tapers off long and spicy yet only lightly tannic.

This one comes from one of the most interesting wineries in all of Oregon, home to a crazy one-of-a-kind gravity flow production which has the winemaking team regularly walking up and down three flights of stairs to check on the state of things. Their Pinots are easily some of the best in Oregon, but the Thea’s Selection is the creme de la creme. It’s made from a blend of all seven 100% organic certified estate vineyards, spread across arguably the two best wine AVAs in the state, Dundee Hills and Yamhill-Carlton.
