Region:USA > Oregon > Willamette Valley
In 1990 Doug and Melissa Tunnell were relative newcomers to the Willamette Valley. They converted an old barn in one of the upper reaches of the Ribbon Ridge AVA (at 400–500 ft (120–150m elevation) to a winery. They set out right from the start to avoid chemical fertilizers and pesticides, eventually being certified as biodynamic by Demeter. The non-vintage House Red Pinot Noir has a medium ruby colour and savoury aromas of red and black berries, smoked meats, cranberry sauce and dark spices. The palate has concentrated, earthy fruits with decent length and a touch of chew.
