Located in the heart of Oregon's Willamette Valley in Dundee Hills AVA, Stoller uniquely offers world-class wines and genuine hospitality in a stunning setting. In 1993, owner Bill Stoller purchased the nearly 400-acre property, which was originally his family’s turkey farm. The winery’s inaugural Pinot Noir was in 2001. His vision of innovation in blending vineyard stewardship with environmental sustainability was recognized in 2006 when Stoller became the first LEED® certified winemaking facility in the United States. Today, the winery features panoramic views, including Mt. Hood, with ample outdoor space for relaxation and guest houses.

The application Dundee Hills, Willamette Valley, Oregon vineyard composition Nancy’s is composed of primarily Pommard clone of Pinot Noir from section 50 off their estate. Planted in 1999, Section 50 consistently yields vibrant Pinot Noir with an excellent balance of fruit, earth and power. Bright red ruby in the glass, this wine reveals purity. There are aromas of lilac, blackberry compote, warm spices, tilled earth and a hint of salinity. The flavors are classic Stoller, with juicy fruit. The tannins are silky and supple,with bright acidity that is precise and focused throughout the palate. The finish has a long and balanced mouthfeel. This Stoller Nancy’s Pinot Noir is delicious and very satisfying in its youth, and has the structure, fruit and backbone to age well.
