Pre-Order Now – Arriving February

Discover the exceptional Bergström Pinot Noir Ribbon Ridge La Spirale Vineyard 2022, a wine that epitomises the elegance and complexity of Oregon's renowned Willamette Valley. Crafted from meticulously farmed vines in the Ribbon Ridge AVA, this limited-release Pinot Noir showcases the finest expressions of its unique terroir.

Bergström Wines, a first-generation American family business, is one of the most unique and lauded domaines in the Willamette Valley. Dr. John Bergström’s Swedish heritage and the love he developed for the Pacific Northwest are the roots of this estate. In 1999, John and his son, Josh, established Bergström Wines and today, Josh and Caroline, his wife and business partner, are celebrating more than 25 years as biodynamic growers of estate Pinot Noir and Chardonnay vineyards on the finest appellations within Oregon’s Willamette Valley.

La Spirale means the vortex; a symbol of life, creation, and the natural formative forces that guide our hands in our agricultural and winemaking pursuits at Bergstrom Wines.

As one of the Top 100 Wines of 2024, as recognised by Wine Spectator, this wine is a testament to Bergström’s unwavering dedication to biodynamic farming and artisanal winemaking.

After spring frost challenges that resulted in significant yield reduction, the 2022 vintage release is a testament to the resilience of the Willamette Valley. A serendipitous course to a triumphant harvest yielded a limited yet precious vintage of intensely colored, aromatic, youthfully enticing Pinot Noirs with structured acidity and minerality, heightened concentration, and coiled complexity that, with time, will unfurl to reveal veiled layers of depth.

Elegant, silky and poised, with aromas of cherries, wild strawberries, frozen raspberries, dried roses and mild spices. It’s medium-bodied with zesty acidity. Bright, crunchy and succulent with plenty of energy. Vibrant, sharp and focused. Precise, lively finish with length. Drink now or hold.

Tasting Profile

Nose
Red roses fall behind bright fresh strawberries, Genmaicha tea, and green peppercorns.
Palate
Medium-bodied and balanced with new oak spice, the purity of fruit expression carries onto the palate, where it finds its balance with acidity and tannin and bursts with pomegranates and red currants. There is a tension that will evolve beautifully as this wine ages in the bottle.
