Three otters have rested prominently on the Fullerton family crest since the 13th century. Today, the family craft these wines to honor their Northern European heritage. The Three Otters wines are energetic, playful, and make friends easily at gatherings. They are otterly delicious!
This Willamette Valley blend highlights the breadth and diversity of this region with both sedimentary- and volcanic based soils.
Pouring a brilliant, ruby red this true-to-style Willamette Pinot Noir jumps out of the glass with cranberry, strawberry, raspberry, cherry, and black tea. The palate leads with raspberry, lingonberry, cherry, and fresh tilled soil. It is both smooth and acid driven, a perfect match for good company and delicious food!
Serve this wine slightly chilled, and pair it with dishes of earthy mushrooms, like chanterelles and morels, light cuts of meat, charcuterie and cheese.
"A perfumed nose with beeswax and dried grass, as well as pears and poached apples. The palate has some pithy intensity with baked-pear and melon flavors. Drink now. Screw cap."

"This fresh and inviting, value-priced wine is done in a lighter style, with strawberry fruit rather than darker black fruit flavors. It's lively with appealing accents of cola and mocha."

"(15% whole clusters and 5% new French oak) Light vivid red. Spice-accented red berry aromas and flavors are complemented by a subtle floral nuance that builds as the wine opens up. Juicy, seamless and light on its feet; a peppery note adds back-end cut. Finishes clean and brisk, with soft tannins adding gentle grip and shape. - Josh Raynolds"
