Ken Wright Cellars Seminar Tasting - Delafield

Founded in 1994, Ken Wright Cellars has become one of the benchmark producers of Oregon Pinot Noir. Rather than focusing on a single estate, Ken Wright pioneered a vineyard-designate philosophy in the Willamette Valley, believing that each site should transparently express its own soils, elevation, and microclimate. Today the winery farms and sources fruit from many of the region's most celebrated vineyards across the Yamhill-Carlton, Eola-Amity Hills, Ribbon Ridge, Dundee Hills, McMinnville, and Chehalem Mountains AVAs. Ken Wright's approach is one of restraint and precision. Native fermentations, gentle extraction, minimal new oak, and meticulous farming allow each wine to reflect its vineyard rather than the hand of the winemaker. The result is Pinot Noir that emphasizes freshness, aromatic complexity, silky texture, and a clear sense of place. The winery has earned widespread acclaim over the past three decades, helping establish Oregon as one of the world's premier regions for Pinot Noir.
