All about the wine I've work in the wine world in New Zealand, Burgundy and in the Sonoma Coast, but I haven't missed a harvest in Oregon since 2007. And I honestly don't plan to until I can't walk anymore. Battle Creek's Pinot comes from hand-selected vineyards across the state, including our namesake Battle Creek Vineyard. Ancient volcanic soils, cool wet winters, warm dry summers. Everything Oregon Pinot Noir should be. Getting personal What's the best advice you've ever received? Make all your mistakes on someone else's dime If you weren't making wine, what would you be doing? Roasting coffee in Hawaii What is your favorite thing about Portland? The Battle Creek Cellars tasting room What are you most excited about right now? Football season! You'll love these wines, I promise. - Sarah
