Fossil & Fawn is a Willamette Valley, Oregon-based winery that makes several different wines, including a blended Willamette Valley Pinot Noir. The winery uses a low-intervention approach with native fermentations, neutral oak barrels, and no fining or filtering. Current and recent vintages of the Willamette Valley Pinot Noir typically feature classic Oregon Pinot Noir characteristics, such as red bramble fruit and earthy notes. A blend of Pinot Noir barrels sourced from all the vineyards we work with across a few of the Willamette Valley sub-AVAs, with vine age ranging from 20 to 50 years. Aged in predominantly neutral oak barrels, the point is to let the fruit shine. You will find classical Oregon Pinot Noir characteristics of bramble fruit (think raspberries and blackberries), smoky leather, wet rocks, and mushroomy earthiness.
