Wine Profile
Tasting Notes

This Pinot Noir displays sweet, richy perfumed hazelnut-chocolate notes, sweet dark cherries-boysenberries-blackberries and rich complexity. The flavors are very elegant, sweet, rich, juicy and complex. The very sweet, dark berry fruits dominate, with intense concentration and richness, mingling with hazelnut notes and a touch of spices. The texture is, sweet and rich, with great elegance and great concentration from beginning to end. The finish is long, with a rich-sweet tannin elegance, supported by juicy acidity and sweet fruit-complex notes.

This wine will benefit from cellaring and be enjoyed now without decanting.

Vineyard Notes

Production Notes
The 2019 growing season started with a cold and dry November to January, then a cold and wet-snowy February-March. April started cold and turned warmer the last week of the month, reaching the low 70’s kicking off bud break about 10 days late. By early May the heat was turned on reaching the upper 80’s by the 13th. Bloom started on time mid-June with temperatures reaching the mid 90’s at the end of the month. July started cool 70’s to low 80’s until reaching 91 on the 21st. The summer was cool and dry, with only 9 days in the low to mid 90’s for the entire growing season. Summer came to an abrupt end the last days of August, followed by a very cool and wet September in the low 60’s. Summer fires in Southern Oregon/ Northern California brought negligible smoke to the Northern Willamette Valley. The grape yields were average to above average with no significant disease in most vineyards. Torii Mor’s harvest started on September 23rd and finished on October 9th.
Winemaker Notes
Harvested September 29, and whole clusters October 5 at 22 to 22.6 Brix, the fruit was handpicked, sorted, destemmed (not whole clusters), then fermented without cold soak, in small 1.5 ton bins for 12 to 16 days without cold soak, with RB2, F15, and Brio yeasts, and punched down 3 times a day. The wine was aged for 18 months, the first 10 months in 15.23% new, 1.02% second fill and 7.61% third fill French oak, the balance neutral oak. The barrels were racked in June, after Malo-Lactic fermentation then again in August when the blend was put together before returning to neutral barrels until bottling. The wine was un-fined and un-filtered. Torii Mor Winery is LIVE certified, and this bottling is “LIVE certified sustainable”.
