AND THE HANDS THAT CRAFT IT
La Biblioteca wines are stories we pour for each other, full of joy and laughter — and an appreciation for Oregon’s magical terroir. Our exquisitely crafted small-batch Pinot Noir and Chardonnay are waiting for you to pour a glass, taste the magic, and curate your own story.
Pinot Noir
ABOUT OUR PINOT NOIR
Sourced from our two Estate Vineyards, located in the McMinnville AVA and Yamhill Carlton AVA. Dry-Farmed and tended with care to produce low yield fruit with optimal flavor showcasing the Willamette Valley. Hand-picked grapes, winemaker instinct, low intervention, thoughtful blending, fine French oak, and the magic of the land are the elements that create our world-class Pinot Noir.
ABOUT OUR CHARDONNAY
In a valley known for its Pinot Noir, our 2019 Chardonnay is truly a standout. A young, dry wine that shows great aging potential—it’s ready to drink now or cellar for later. The acidity nicely balances the oak. Aromas of sweet pear, apple, white currant, and lemon verbena let you dream of summertime in Oregon.
Chardonnay
Rosé
ABOUT OUR ROSÉ
Made from 100% Pinot Noir, our 2020 Rosé is bright, crisp, and refreshing. A hint of sweetness, red fruit with dried herbs, wildflowers, and strawberry rhubarb pie—with a touch of minerality—greet you on the nose. A great balance of acidity and red fruit with an herbal edge offer complexity that your palate will love. Perfect for brunch and al fresco dining.
Oak Aged to Perfection
La Biblioteca uses only the finest French Oak made by the most sought-after and long-established artisan coopers: Billon, Mercurey, Damy, Chassin, Seguin Moreau, and Francois Freres in Burgundy. Our tailormade, toasted barrels are handpicked to showcase the characteristics of each of our exceptional wines. Using 30% new oak for our Chardonnay and 26% for our Pinot Noir, La Biblioteca’s aging process ensures the perfect harmony between wood and wine. Our low-intervention approach in the cellar and the vineyard makes wines with personality and intrigue that beautifully reflect the Willamette Valley. We limit our production to 1,200 cases per year and look forward to sharing our wines with you.
