"WILLAMETTE IS THE BURGUNDY OF AMERICA"
"Earthy" is a term (of endearment!) often applied to pinot noir from France's Burgundy regionwhich, by the way, is the gold standard of all the pinot noir on Earth. How do Oregon wines taste so much like Burgundy's? It's all thanks to the climates of the two wine-producing regions being incredibly similar. Both are defined by their year-round mild conditions, where winters are cool and wet and summers are warm and dry. Neither places get too warm (the temperature inches above the unfriendly wine-growing mark of 90 °F only a few days each year), which is an environment where Pinot Noir thrives.
