Tony Soter on Etude, Oregon and Heirloom Pinot Noi

Recommended Posts

Last week, I chanced upon an opportunity to interview Tony Soter, the man behind Etude and Soter Vineyards. We talked about the Beringer Blass acquisition of Etude, "heirloom" Pinot Noir and his project in Oregon's Willamette Valley. It was a special treat to spend some time with this gentleman - winemaker; you can read the interview in its entirety on the Gang of Pour website.

Cheers from Day-twah,

They are made in a small converted barn, which is a very humble edifice recently refurbished by shoveling out a lot of cow manure. We ferment in very small batches, everything is hand done . . .

So that's why Pinot Noirs have that elegant 'barnyard' aroma . . . :laugh::laugh:

But seriously, that is an interesting interview, geo t. Thanks for sharing with us!
