Sun Break Wines

Premium quality, small batch, Pinot Noir from the Cortell-Rose Vineyard (Eola-Amity Hills/Willamette Valley)

  • No added sulfites during the first 5 or 6 months of élevage
  • Neutral oak barrels and lees stirring/bâtonnage (for reds)
  • Dry farmed
  • No herbicides or synthetic fertilizers or pesticides are used.

The wines are crafted for complexity and intensity of flavor and aromatics in five styles: Colette, the most fruit focused of the three red wines, from 100% destemmed fermentations; Ariane, a lighter style red wine with savory notes, 100% whole cluster; Marie-Paule, a blend of two red Pinots for added depth and character; Nicolette, a white wine from Pinot Noir; and Marie, a rose’ of Pinot Noir.

All six clones/blocks from the vineyard are used, a key factor in the wines’ quality. The vineyard is dry farmed, and no herbicides or synthetic fertilizers or pesticides are used.
