NEXT WEEK! 🙌 In the tradition of Willamette: The Pinot Noir Auction's Friday walk-around tasting events, we are pleased to offer a weeklong virtual tasting series featuring our winemakers and winery principals. #wvauction https://t.co/rC9Rl2rkJu
The “Valley of Flowers” lot pays respect to the @chehalemwines name, the AVA, and the expression of their winery home at Corral Creek. Learn more about it: https://t.co/TlmtNc5dsu #wvauction
As @raptoridge winemakers Shannon Gustafson (pictured) and Scott Shull tasted through the cellar last spring, the 2018 Olenik Vineyard barrels made them want to chant, “Olé Olé Olé!” Learn about their lot from this vineyard: https://t.co/TlmtNc5dsu #wvauction
The 1.5-acre Halliday Hill block overlooking @brickhousevineyards on Ribbon Ridge is an integral part of the winery's 30-acre Biodynamic estate plantings. Learn more about winemaker Doug Tunnell’s lot from this block: https://t.co/TlmtNc5dsu #wvauction
"The Final Flight" is a tribute to the oft-airborne tent @BrynMawrVyds winemaker Rachel Rose called "winery" until the 2018 vintage. Their first Pinot made within walls, it was shaped by years without them, battling wind and rain. Learn more: https://t.co/TlmtNc5dsu #wvauction
We're all missing certain things these days. The @AlexanaWinery lot, called Fear of Missing Out, reflects 11 different blocks from their estate vineyard. Save yourself from Auction FOMO and learn more: https://t.co/TlmtNc5dsu #wvauction 📷 Caylee Betts
