Chad at IPNC: “Oregon’s 2014 Pinot Noirs weren’t ruby; they were BLACK!” The 2014 growing season in Oregon has been called one for the record books and the “vintage of a lifetime.” A warm, dry spring made for a copious Pinot Noir set. The summer was exceedingly dry. While high temperatures were only slightly greater…

Seize The Day Any winegrower worth their salt will tell you that their wines are made in the vineyard, not in the cellar. But the most astute growers will tell you something even more fascinating: Based on the flavor profile of grapes plucked and tasted right off the sorting table, they can extrapolate the makeup…
