2024 Axe & Rose Pinot Noir

The limited-edition wine, 2024 Willamette Valley Axe & Rose Pinot Noir, is the result of a collaboration between 107IST (a nonprofit group that backs the Portland Timbers Army and the Portland Thorns Rose City Riveters), and Sidereus Winery, whose staff are avid soccer fans. Each bottle sold donates $2 to 107IST’s philanthropic efforts supporting the region’s youth soccer and community initiatives such as food drives, CPR classes, and other volunteer activities.

This special Pinot Noir is a blend of three different Pinot Noir clones: Dijon clones 777, 667 and Wädenswil. Each clone was harvested on a day that our winemaker thought was best for each individual clone. After picking, the clones were then fermented, pressed and aged all separately in French oak for 12 months before the blend was created.  The blend then went back into French oak for another six months to homogenize before being ready to bottle.

This wine displays aromas of black cherry, plum, white pepper, cedar and subtle spice notes to compliment. The palate has similar red fruit flavors along with a soft mid-palate that adds to the long and balanced finish.
