NC- 2-Pack: Phelps Creek Pinot Noir

Phelps Creek, a tributary of the Columbia River, originates from a lake nestled between their vineyard and Mt. Defiance. The creek runs just below their vineyards, making theirs the first private property along its route. Phelps Creek first planted their oldest Pinot Noir vines in 1990, followed by a block of Dijon clone Chardonnay two years later. Over the years, they have expanded the vineyards to encompass 34 acres: 25 acres of Pinot Noir, 4.5 acres of Chardonnay, and 0.5 acres of Pinot Gris. In addition to their estate-grown fruit, they also experiment with growing "alternative whites" across the Columbia River on Underwood Mountain.

Included in 2-Pack:

2021 "Le Petit" Pinot Noir
"Scents of strawberry and spice lace the nose. This distinctive Pinot Noir with its bright acidity and low level tannin soon becomes the favorite red wine of the summer. Especially when it's warm outside, serve slightly chilled. Perfect al fresco with anything grilled.​"
-Winemaker Notes

2019 Columbia Gorge Pinot Noir
"The perfect wine to describe our estate. Each block of Pinot Noir is harvested, fermented and barrel aged separately, and only blended at the final tasting trial. Our ancient volcanic soils usher beautiful spice, while the high elevation brings brightness to our finished product.​"
