The 2009 ALBERTA Pinot Noir is a blend of 3 different Willamette Valley vineyards that each offer their own characteristics, but come together to give a fuller-bodied Pinot with strawberry and cherry aromas and a good deal of structure. With just 75 cases produced, stop by the shop and get yours now. 10% of the profits from all sales of ALBERTA Pinot Noir will benefit Community Cycling Center, a nonprofit organization located on Alberta Street committed to broadening access to bicycling and its benefits through hands-on programs, volunteer projects, and a neighborhood bike shop. Supporting cycling and drinking Pinot - what could be more Portland!		Wines made by cork's owner, Darryl Joannides, bear his Italian family name, VIOLA. His latest release is this full-bodied Sangiovese made with grapes purchased from the former Nicolas Cole vineyard in Walla Walla, WA. Grown using the VINEA sustainable growing guidelines for this vineyard, we were very excited by the quality of fruit. The wine was aged 14 months in once and twice used French barrels, then aged 6 months in bottle before its release in November 2009. Come try a bottle today.
