Staff Pick Notes

Shea Vineyard, owned by Dick Shea, is a 200-acre vineyard in the Yamhill County of the Willamette Valley, Oregon. Shea sells grapes to some of Oregon’s very best wineries and carefully crafts his eponymous label from only choice blocks. Shea is intimately familiar with the different clones and variants of Pinot Noir around the world, Dijon and Pommard variants are a staple on the vineyard. Shea is renowned for bringing the Swiss clone, Wädenswil to Willamette in the early 2000s. This wine is supple in black currant fruits. Very balanced between acidity and minerality. A touch of slightly musty French oak is a reassuring undertone. Simply a treat to relax and savor this after a full day.

Glossary

Pinot Noir

Willamette Valley

Perhaps the most familiar wine producing region in Oregon, the Willamette Valley is actually a group of distinct AVA's (American Viticultural Areas). This varied area is home to approximately two thirds of Oregon's wineries. Bounded roughly by the cities of Portland in the north and Eugene in the south, the near-idyllic wine growing region is cradled between the Cascade Mountain Range on its east side and the Coastal Range to the west, and produces some of America's most sublime expressions of...

Oregon

The largest wine region in Oregon is the Willamette Valley, lying between the cities of Portland and Eugene and home to most of Oregon’s wineries. As it does not have one homogeneous climate, it has been broken up into several different AVAs. In the best of them, the perfect amounts of wind, rain, sun exposure, and altitude combine to give Pinot Noir the warm days and cool nights it needs in order to thrive. Combine that with good drainage and poor soils, and you’ve got the perfect environment...
