| Description: | Willamette Valley\r\nLive Certified Sustainable\r\nWinemaker Notes\r\n\r\n\r\nThe Argyle Willamette Valley Pinot Noir highlights the elegance and complexity of the Willamette Valley Ava, showcasing the purity of fruit and lively texture the region has to offer. Delicate fermentation and gentle pressing enhanced this wine\u2019s silky mouthfeel. The wine showcases both dark and red cherry flavors, as well as black tea and spice accents. On the palate, fresh, vibrant acidity and polished tannins frame the flavors, while adding precise and persistent length.\r\nAbout Argyle Winery\r\nIn 1987, Argyle was founded by pioneering vintner Rollin Soles, with a belief that the cool-climate of Oregon\u2019s Willamette Valley was ideal for producing sparkling wines. Our winemaking program now includes sparkling wines, Chardonnays, Pinot Noirs and Rieslings, which have earned acclaim for their elegance, vineyard-driven character and uncommon ageability.\r\nWhile Argyle has quietly established a reputation as an Oregon icon, we have remained deeply rooted in the Willamette Valley community, and true to the grower-first ideals that inspired our founding. Today, our estate program includes more than 400 acres, with a remarkably diverse tapestry of microclimates, clonal and rootstock selections, elevations, exposures and soil types.\r\nWinemaker Nate Klostermann and his team work in extremely small lots to preserve the nuance and complexity of our estate fruit. The team is continually experimenting with innovations such as skin soaking, whole clusters, harvesting at various ripeness levels and fine-tuning the dosage program.\r\nAt its heart, Argyle\u2019s history is a quintessential Oregon tale, complete with the promise of staking claim to new spaces, taking risks, and embracing opportunities and possibilities. It is also a story of a deep and meaningful relationship with the land, with the Oregon winemaking community, and with the wine lovers who have long championed the regions beautiful and distinctive wines.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nSustainability\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nAt Argyle, we are growers first. We are also an Oregon winery with deep roots in our community, and a commitment to the long-term health of our land and the Oregon wine industry. This means that we believe in being good stewards of our vineyards, good neighbors, and a positive force in our communities. To achieve this, we are dedicated to the tenets of sustainability in all areas of our operations, including water conservation, energy efficiency, composting, waste reduction, renewable packaging, civic responsibility, philanthropy, social equity, and much more.\r\n\r\nWhile we take pride in what we have accomplished so far, we are constantly striving to be better environmental citizens, while producing wines that reflect the intersection between people and place that have been at the core of our philosophy since 1987.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nLIVE Certified\r\nWe believe that rigorous third-party certification is the most authentic and transparent way to share our sustainability story with our customers. In 2008, Argyle became one of the very first Oregon wineries to earn Live (Low Input Viticulture & Enology) certification when the program was created. Live certification also encompasses Salmon Safe certification. |
