About The Pack
The idea for the Dr. Edge Oregon Pinot Noir project was a simple one: to replicate the same exploration of Pinot Noir that he has undertaken in Tasmania, but through the lens of the Willamette Valley in Oregon, USA.
There are four distinct expressions of the Pinot Noir grape here. Three are from individual vineyards (either certified organic or sustainable) and a fourth wine which is a blend of the three sites, similar to his Tasmania Pinot Noir in concept.
These are absolutely breathtaking wines, each a study in detail and finesse from one of the most talented Australian winemakers of his generation. Dredge only made minuscule amounts of these Pinot Noirs. There was around 50 dozen of each wine imported to Australia.
This four pack is extremely limited and will sell out.
2019 Dr. Edge Willamette Valley Pinot Noir
From his Adelaide home to his current Tasmanian address to Oregon and back, Peter Dredge, or Dr Edge, leaves a trail of wonderful wines and probably some empty beer bottles.
The Willamette Valley Pinot is the regional blend he makes in Oregon, and while elegant and pure, it is a fuller-bodied style than his Tassie releases.
50% whole bunch and carbonic maceration, 100% organic.
Flirty, herbal and floral this is simply delicious drinking. "Jolly hockeysticks" as Pete might say.

A third single vineyard string to Dr Edge's American bow, this is a wonderfully lifted, floral Pinot Noir with perhaps a little less grunt than previous wines.
Made in the same way as all his US (and Tassie wines) with 50% carbonic maceration. The site is found in the newly-created AVA The Van Duzer Corridor - AVAs are American Viticultural Areas, their vineyard classification system.
This is a cooler site, and with 2019 a cooler year than 2018, look for elegance, purity and persistence.
With bushfires and Covid there are no current plans for future releases, so jump in while the water is warm and the wine is available.

The Dr. Edge Oregon Pinot Noir project has been a long time in the making for Peter Dredge.
The idea was to replicate the same exploration of Pinot Noir that he has undertaken in Tasmania, but through the lens of the Willamette Valley in Oregon, USA.
There are three distinct expressions of the Pinot Noir grape here. The Dukes Family Vineyard in Amity, previously managed by friend Kevin Healy, supplies the fruit for the Eola-Amity Hills Pinot Noir. It's a cooler site for the region, in the south of Willamette Valley.
This is the finer, more focused wine of the three. It's red-fruited, floral, nervy and has the texture of fine bone china. It's stunning.

There are four distinct expressions of the Pinot Noir grape from the 2019 vintage, one more than in 2018. The Chehalem Mountains Pinot Noir comes from the Azana vineyard owned by the uncle of Pete's friend Kevin Healy.
This wine shows immense power and athleticism, with raw mineral drive and a riotous perfume of cherries, strawberries and volcanic earth. It's smoky, it's seductive, it's pleasure in Pinot form.
This is a phenomenal depiction of Pinot Noir that will continue to reveal further layers of itself for many years to come.

Do I have to order in dozens? No, please mix it up! You can order wines in any quantity and variation you like. You can order 1 bottle or 50. We challenge you to make the ultimate mixed pack of wine!
Are there volume discounts? No, our pricing is designed to be the best in market already - no marking up and then discounting down! For very large orders (weddings, etc) we are open to negotiating though. Just give us a call.
Do we price match? Yes, within reason. Everyday low & consistent pricing is something we strongly believe in. We want our customers to feel confident they are always getting the best price. If you see a price lower somewhere else let us know and we'll consider matching it. We'll even retrospectively issue you store credit if you have already purchased from us but you see a lower price somewhere later on. Our price match policy can be seen here.
Can coupons and discounts be stacked? No, only one discount or coupon can be applied to an order at once.
I am trying to add more of a wine to my cart but it won’t let me? This means we are running low on stock of that wine. So for example, if the website will only allow you to add 3 bottles and no more, then that is all we have of that particular wine. The good news is we may be able to order more for you. Just contact us on 02 8376 8775 or hello@differentdrop.com and we'll organise the additional quantity for you.
Does Different Drop have a physical store? No. Just an a warehouse/office. We occasionally do events however, so sign up to our newsletter or follow us on instagram to stay in the loop.
Can I special order a wine you do not sell? If it’s doable, then we’ll make it happen. Just contact us directly via phone, chat or email and we’ll find out for you right away. Please note that in most cases special orders such as these will need to be in full case lots (6 or 12 bottles).
