Our take

What we make of this bottle

Pinot Noir is a red grape with relatively thin skins. Regional category guides commonly name red cherry, berry and plum in it. They place it lighter in color and lower in tannin than Cabernet Sauvignon, and say ripeness and the site it grew on can move it from bright and delicate to darker and fuller. In our September 2026 checks this Oregon Pinot Noir ranged from $25.99 to $34.99.

The Four Graces says it is owned by Bill Foley, is part of Foley Family Wines, and has estate vineyards in Oregon's Dundee Hills and at Doe Ridge in the Yamhill-Carlton AVA. We do not have a shopper rating for this wine. At one of the stores we checked in September 2026, the same bottle was priced at $34.99.

The Four Graces' technical sheet for the current 2024 Pinot Noir lists 13.8 percent alcohol and describes a wine built from multiple estate sites: Foley Family and Black Walnut vineyards in the Dundee Hills, Doe Ridge in the Yamhill-Carlton AVA, and Weathergage in the Van Duzer Corridor, along with fruit from elsewhere in the Willamette Valley. The producer's own tasting notes describe a “bouquet of huckleberry, dried cherry, orange peel, clove, cedar, and mocha”, with “fine tannin” supporting pomegranate and tart strawberry on the palate. The winery traces back to 2003, when the Black family bought an existing Dundee Hills vineyard and named the estate for their four daughters; they added the 40-acre Doe Ridge vineyard, farmed under the LIVE sustainability program, in 2005. Bill Foley now owns the winery, and winemaker Tim Jones oversees the current wines.

Our call: appealing if you want an Oregon Pinot Noir with its sourcing spelled out; The Four Graces names four separate estate and partner vineyards across three AVAs and publishes full technical specs for the current vintage, an unusually complete account for a wine on this shelf. Pass if a family-run story matters to you specifically; Bill Foley's larger portfolio now owns the winery the Black family founded and named for their daughters, and no shopper rating has reached our record to weigh in on the wine itself.

Region guideOregon

A little background helps this bottle make sense.

Getting to know Oregon.

Oregon gives Pinot Noir a credible cool-climate frame, but statewide origin leaves the vineyard mix unresolved. That distinction is the page’s central honesty test.

The place

What the name means

A state origin spanning distinct AVAs and climates; it is not interchangeable with Willamette Valley.

Weather

How grapes grow here

Oregon ranges from cool western valleys to warmer southern and eastern sites. Vintage and source region can materially change Pinot Noir style.

Soil

What lies under the vines

Volcanic, marine sedimentary and alluvial soils occur across Oregon; none can be assigned to this bottle without sourcing evidence.

How large the region is

Pinot Noir context
The Oregon Wine Board reports Pinot Noir as 59% of planted acres statewide.

Places within the region

Willamette Valley
The state’s principal Pinot Noir center, but not a valid bottle claim unless the release identifies it.
Grape guidePinot Noir

The grape name gives context. It is not a review of this bottle.

Getting to know Pinot Noir.

Pinot Noir is a red grape with relatively thin skins. It is used for still red wine and as one of the main grapes in many traditional-method sparkling wines.

Category guide

What to expect in the glass

Regional category guides commonly describe red cherry, berry and plum, with lighter color and less tannin than Cabernet Sauvignon. Site and ripeness can shift it from bright and delicate to darker and fuller.
