Failla · Willamette Valley Pinot Noir · 2023
Failla’s Willamette Valley Pinot Noir brings the winery’s cool-climate Pinot focus to Oregon. Founder Ehren Jordan has long explored how different vineyard sites shape the grape, from California’s coastal vineyards to the Willamette Valley. This 2023 bottling offers an aromatic, red-fruited expression for a dinner built around roast poultry or mushrooms.
Winemaker Description
Bright and aromatic with notes of pomegranate, orange zest, bright cherries, and dried herbs. This wine perfectly emphasizes the essence of the Willamette Valley.

Expert Review · 2023 Vintage
The 2023 Pinot Noir (Willamette Valley) is a gorgeous and very serious appellation-level wine. Crushed flowers, sweet red berry fruit, white pepper, blood orange, mint, chalk and slate all meld together in this gracious, silky Pinot. What a beauty.

About Failla
Failla’s first vintage was released as Failla-Jordan in 1998. Ehren Jordan’s interest in distinct cool-climate sites has shaped the winery’s work with Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Syrah. Its Pinot program later expanded north to Oregon, including fruit from Seven Springs Vineyard in the Eola-Amity Hills.
