Chemistry is now a “sub-label” of the Willamette Valley winery Stoller. Stoller has one of the biggest tasting rooms in the Valley, and if you’ve been to Willamette, you’ve probably experienced Stoller. Stoller wInery, along with its founder Bill Stoller, are actually a larger corporation, which includes farming many other vineyards in Willamette, as well as now owning another winery, Chehalem. All of this is to say that they’ve got a lot of excellent fruit around, and Chemistry was designed to showcase that fruit but at a more competitive price than Stoller’s estate wines. Chemistry was already darn good stuff, but then, nature intervened - the fires came. What to do?\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBill Stoller is kind of a giant in the Oregon wine industry, having first started farming grapes in 1983.

Some in Oregon, but some in California.

Here, you're getting the best of California Pinot, and the best of Oregon Pinot. The sum really is greater than the parts. The wine opens with ripe red raspberry aromas, Rainier strawberries, and hints of orange zest. These aromatics remind me of Oregon. On the palate are notes of bright cherry, plush tannins and just a bit of baking spice from the barrel - to me, all notes of Carneros Pinot.
