Descrizione

The Pinot Noir Quartz Acorn from the estate Domaine Roy & Fils is an excellent expression of the Yamhill-Carlton AVA, an area of the Willamette Valley in Oregon renowned for its quartz-rich soils. This territorial composition gives the wine an elegant, fresh, and mineral structure that stands out among American pinot noirs.

Vinified with carefully selected Pinot Noir grapes, this wine presents a complex bouquet featuring aromas of ripe cherries, small berries, and delicate floral notes, accompanied by an earthy and spicy touch. The aging is done in French oak barrels, which imparts softness and fine tannins, while maintaining a vibrant acidity that promises good longevity.

Perfectly paired with game dishes and roasted white meats, the Quartz Acorn invites a refined tasting experience deeply connected to its territory of origin.

Winery history

Founded as a winemaking project by Marc‑André Roy and Jared Etzel, the winery has expanded by developing vineyards in the Dundee Hills area and at sites near Carlton/Yamhill‑Carlton. The property includes the Iron Filbert vineyard in the Dundee Hills; part of the land was originally used for hazelnut cultivation before being converted to a vineyard. In July 2023, the Marchesi Frescobaldi group announced the acquisition of Domaine Roy & Fils.
