the Rizzo winery NOTEBOOK

At Rizzo, we want to help our valued customers learn about how many hands this bottle went through before reaching their glass - or why wine has been the chosen beverage for thousands of years throughout history. We wanted to share the tools that enable our wine lovers to feel confident about discussing the bottle of Rizzo they are drinking with friends.

We created the Notebook to help get you there and to pass on our wealth of knowledge to you.

Rizzo Winery's 2008 Pinot Noir

One of the most picture-perfect vintages the Willamette Valley has ever seen. A vintage that created a wine that was rushed into wine cellars by buyers, leaving it sold out to anyone late to the game. Luckily for all of you, we are sharing our cellar with you, so you can have a luxurious tasting experience with the 2008 vintage.

The 2008 vintage was a knockout for the Willamette Valley. It had everything vintners love, naturally lower yields, a bit of rain towards harvest that didn’t dilute the grapes but hydrated them instead, and a range of temperatures that allow for interesting acidity and flavors to develop all summer long. A vintage that swept the valley and sold out to be stored in wine cellars all over the world. Luckily for you all, we love sharing and have brought this bottled beauty out of our cellar for you to enjoy the luxury of drinking perfectly aged Pinot Noir.

Rizzo Winery's 2006 Pinot Noir

Dive into the world of well-aged Pinot Noir with us as we share some knowledge on aging wines, our 2006 Pinot Noir flavor profile, and the 2006 vintage here in the Eola-Amity Hills.

There is a common misconception about aging Pinot Noir that exists in society, and we’re here to tell you that the age limits that exist are guidelines, not hard fast rules. Aging wine, in any sense is fully dependent on the quality of the wine you’re trying to age. Our wines are of incredible quality, we have cellared these wines because we believed in them, and now we’re drinking the benefits of that. This 2006 Pinot Noir is a delicious and true testament to this belief. Buy a bottle or two, grab a glass and enjoy the luxury of aged Pinot Noir.
