WillaKenzie Estate
Located in the Yamhill-Carlton District of Oregon's Willamette Valley and named for the vineyard's Willakenzie soil, Willakenzie Estate is a family-owned winery devoted to producing terroir-driven wines from the Pinot family using sustainable farming practices. Blending the tradition of his Burgundian roots with the intellectual training of his career in high tech, owner Bernard Lacroute's innovative practices have paid off in the form of superior wines from intense flavors, robust structures, and round, supple tannins.
" ...the entire vineyard occupies hilltops...that site helps account for the remarkable consistencies found in WillaKenzie pinot noir, pinot gris and pinot blanc: consistencies in ripeness, flavor, structure and nerve."
