2018 Holloran Pinot Noir Le Pavillon
Tasting notes
Notes of dusty cherry and spicy clove emerge from the glass. The flavors continue showing deep pure red cherry flavors with earthy highlights, and a hint of grilled citrus. The finish is broad and long, framed by bright acidity and a lift from the modest tannic structure.
Pairing: Try it with Skillet Cherry Chicken with White Wine Sauce, or a simple roasted chicken.
Drinking: 2023 – 2033, decant in the early years.

The Le Pavillon Vineyard site in the heart of the Red Hills AVA in Dundee, is our oldest and most unique vineyard. This 10 acre site boasts ownrooted Pommard clone Pinot Noir planted in 1972, along with Chardonnay and Riesling, making it one of the oldest surviving vineyards in the Willamette Valley.
The soils are volcanic-based Jory with subsurface parent material of fractured basalt. The vines are not irrigated, forcing the roots to seek water and minerals deep underground. The average elevation is 617 feet, with a south facing 9.7% slope.
This vineyard has been farmed organically since 1999 and biodynamic since 2006, supporting the production of some of the finest Pinot Noir that Oregon has to offer
