Owner/winemaker Tahmiene Momtazi (who also makes her family’s Maysara wines) crafts just a couple hundred cases of one of Oregon’s most authentic and under-the-radar high-quality Pinot Noirs. And she sells them at a remarkably reasonable $30.
Which for a Pinot Noir of this quality, pedigree and sheer authentic class (the sort of Oregon Pinot that really could pass for quality red Burgundy) is so reasonable it’s almost laughable.
This is wild yeast fermented, aged in neutral oak, and bottled with very little sulfur. And the alcohol is only 13.25%.
“Tahmiene,” by the way, is Farsi for “brave.”
