J Christopher Medici Pinot Noir 2017 (6 x 750ml)
(RRP $145 PER BOTTLE - $135 PER BOTTLE IN STRAIGHT 6-PACK )
Ernst Loosen is known for one of the wine world's greatest
contributions to the Riesling cause. Less well known is his devotion to
Pinot Noir, which he's been growing since 1996 at his Pfalz winery Villa
Wolf. In 2004 he hosted a young Oregon Pinot producer named Jay Somers for
harvest in the Mosel. That planted the seed for Erni's own adventures in
Oregon Pinot Noir, which led to Erni building a winery and planting a
vineyard in the northern Willamette Valley, in the Chehalem Mountains AVA.
The winery specialises in Pinot Noir made using the traditional methods of
Burgundy, including biodynamic practices in the vineyard. Tim Malone now
oversees winemaking at this glorious estate and continues to handcrafted
small batches of stunning wines from some of the best vineyards in
Oregon.
