THE WINE
Our 2022 Holy Trinity Pinot Noir represents the union between three preeminent clones: Pommard, Wädenswil and Dijon 777. Sourced from two prized neighboring vineyards, Fairsing and Ridgecrest, this wine has layers of delicate oak, cocoa and crushed rose petals. A silky entry, fine grain tannin, and elegant freshness fill the palate providing a lasting finish.

THE WINERY
In 1998, Lynn and Ron Penner-Ash founded Penner-Ash Wine Cellars in the Northern Willamette Valley’s Yamhill-Carlton sub-AVA. The pair built their LIVE-Certified sustainable gravity-flow winery surrounded by a 15-acre Estate Vineyard. The building seems to spring from the land itself – a reflection of the values, spirit and winemaking philosophy of Penner-Ash. Today, Winemaker Kate Ayres has been entrusted to carry forward the longstanding relationships that Lynn has fostered over the past twenty years. In the winery, Kate and her winemaking team focus on small-lot indigenous yeast fermentation with extended cold soaks to extract a rich, fruit-focused, textured mouth feel. Each lot is vinified separately then artistically crafted into single vineyard wines, as well as blended to create the flagship Penner-Ash wine, the Willamette Valley Pinot Noir.
