Elk Cove pinot noir from the Willamette Valley in Oregon is a wine with silky integrated tannins and supple red fruit. The mix of soils in the region, including sandstone and basalt, according to Forbes, gives the wine a mineral-driven finish that keeps it feeling focused on the palate.

It is at moments ripe and round, yet offering earthy minerality that is backed up by black cherry and sweet plum.”
“The hottest brand in the U.S. wine industry is Oregon pinot noir, and no one does it as well at such scale — 20,000 cases — as the Campbell family. Think of a slice of cherry pie sprinkled with allspice, and layers beyond.”
Harvest is a full-on work experience. It’s monotonous, thrilling, exciting, you don’t see or do much outside of work, yet the camaraderie and that singular focus for the whole team is very addictive!

“Mixed berries and earthy aromas, with flavors of cherry pie, toasted marshmallows, nutmeg, tayberries and tinges of licorice.”
“Adam Campbell of Elk Cove is known for his complex, terroir-driven, single-vineyard Pinots, but his basic estate bottling is no less appealing. Floral on the nose, it offers substantial flavor without weightiness, ending with a hint of peppery spice. If you like this one, you may well find yourself investing in his single-vineyard bottlings, too.”
