Bill Fuller planted the Tualatin Estate Vineyard back in 1973 so he’s got quite a history with the place. Upon his retirement in 1997, the vineyard was merged into the Willamette Valley Vineyards portfolio. Years later, the new owners convinced Bill to come out of retirement to make wine from his favorite vineyard blocks.
Now 84 years young, this marks the 46th vintage of the Pinot grapes Bill planted way back when. Only 233 cases were produced so order this celebratory Pinot noir soon, before it sells out!
