Close100% Pinot Meunier
Food pairings: A clam, shiitake, chorizo and vermouth stew, or crispy enoki mushrooms with roasted garlic aioli — pairings the winery suggests for its carbonic La Belle Promenade Pinot Meunier.
Winemaking: The 2023 is an assembly of carbonic maceration and traditional extraction, fermented with native yeast and 100% whole clusters, with a partial carbonic maceration, then aged in 100% neutral oak. It was bottled in September 2024.
Vineyards and terroir: Fruit is 100% from La Belle Promenade Vineyard (“the beautiful walk”), Flâneur’s estate site on the western slope of the Chehalem Mountains AVA. The 40-acre vineyard, planted in 2014, sits on basalt-based volcanic soils of varying depth and is dry-farmed in house using organic principles. The undulating terrain offers diverse sun exposure; the soils’ water retention supports balanced vine growth.
Family and history: Flâneur Wines is based in Carlton, Oregon, and was founded by Marty Doerschlag. The name comes from the Parisian flâneur of the 1840s: a curious stroller and connoisseur of life, walking slowly enough to be led by a turtle — a figure that also appears on this label. The estate also includes Flânerie Vineyard and a restored grain elevator in Carlton.
