Description

The Nerthus has a delightful, pale rosy pink colour with hints of peach and beautiful, brilliant transparency. It’s visually very pleasing. The nose is full of fresh peach and apricot (stone-fruit) notes with floral and mineral notes. Though bone dry, there is mouth-watering peach and apricot fruit that is carried nicely by the racy acidity. This alpine-fresh wine is a real joy bringer.

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.
