Bergstrom Silice Pinot Noir 2022

The 2022 Bergstrom Silice Pinot Noir reflects the resilience of the vintage, showcasing intense aromatics, structured acidity, and deep concentration. Fermented with 100% whole clusters and aged on lees in lightly oaked French barrels, this wine offers layered flavors of ripe blueberry, dark berries, and hints of black licorice, fennel, and five-spice. Silky in texture with a lingering finish, it highlights both the vineyard’s signature minerality and Bergström’s meticulous craftsmanship.

Bergström Wines is a renowned first-generation family domaine in Oregon’s Willamette Valley, founded in 1999 by Dr. John Bergström and his son Josh. With a commitment to biodynamic farming, they craft exceptional estate Pinot Noir and Chardonnay from the region’s top appellations. Their Silice Vineyard, located in the Chehalem Mountains AVA, features unique sandy soils—likely remnants of a 60-million-year-old beach—exposed to strong winds and all-day sunlight. These conditions shape the vineyard's bold Pinot Noir, characterized by vibrant spice, floral elegance, and savory complexity.
