Brave Cellars Road Not Taken Momtazi Vineyard Pinot Noir 2017

Brave Cellars is a side project of Tahmiene Momtazi along with her husband, Colin Smith. The wines are made using Momtazi fruit, but without the markup other wineries pay. Their goal is to showcase the more elegant, approachable side of Willamette Valley Pinot Noir. Black cherry fruit, raspberry and just a hint of the earthier side of Pinot. Super smooth finish.

Brave Cellars wines are 100% sourced from Momtazi Vineyard, an acclaimed Demeter-certified Biodynamic vineyard in the McMinnville AVA. Momtazi Vineyard is nestled near the entrance to the Van Duzer corridor in Oregon’s Coast Range, enabling a unique confluence of high breezes, dryer vines, and robust tannin structures.
