Description

The Willamette Blanc is a brilliantly transparent, very light rose-gold colour. One can easily see that this is a blanc de noir! It is not a rose. The nose smells of fresh oceanic air, sweet rain and minerals. There are touches of citrus, blossoms, and strawberry, and it is a solid everyday “farmhouse” table wine.

With over two decades of experience in the Oregon wine industry, Kelley launched her own label, Kelley Fox Wines, in 2007, after honing her craft at renowned wineries such as Eyrie Vineyards and Scott Paul Wines.
Kelley Fox Wines is a small, boutique operation, with Kelley herself overseeing every aspect of production, from vineyard management to winemaking. She sources grapes from some of the most esteemed vineyards in the Willamette Valley, including the historic Maresh Vineyard in the Dundee Hills and the Demeter-certified biodynamic Momtazi Vineyard in the McMinnville AVA. The focus is primarily on Pinot Noir, though Kelley also produces small amounts of Chardonnay and other varietals.

Willamette Valley

Willamette Valley, located in Oregon, is a renowned wine region celebrated for its exceptional Pinot Noir and cool-climate varietals. The valley benefits from a temperate maritime climate with mild, wet winters and warm, dry summers, creating ideal conditions for viticulture. The region is particularly famous for its Pinot Noir, which thrives in the Willamette Valley’s diverse soils and moderate temperatures, resulting in wines with complex flavours, vibrant acidity, and elegant structure. The valley also produces high-quality Pinot Gris, Chardonnay, and Riesling, known for their crispness, freshness, and aromatic profiles. Winemaking in Willamette Valley began in the 1960s, and it has since gained international acclaim for its quality and innovation.
