RATINGS

95Wine Spectator

Complex and harmonious, beautifully balancing the red cherry, raspberry and dark plum flavors against hints of tea leaf, espresso and river stones, coming together smoothly and easily...

94Vinous / IWC

... Intensely perfumed dark berry, Indian spice and potpourri scents... pitched black raspberry and cherry cola flavors are given lift and cut by juicy acidity and pick up a rose pastille quality with air...rich and lively...

93The Wine Advocate

...a well-defined and characterful bouquet with subtle floral scents, red plum, wild strawberry and a touch of dried blood. The palate is medium-bodied with a superb savory-tinged entry, a subtle dash of spice and wonderful tension...

REGION

United States, Oregon, Willamette Valley, Dundee Hills

Dundee Hills AVA is in Yamhill County, and it is entirely contained within the Willamette Valley AVA, Oregon’s best known appellation. Dundee Hills is about 30 miles southwest of Portland, and has 1,300 vineyard acres. It was awarded AVA status in 2004 and, like much of Oregon, is known for Pinot Noir. Several of Oregon’s 20th century wine pioneers established their vineyards and wineries in Dundee Hills, adding to its status as a region long-recognized for producing high quality, iconic Oregon wines. Eyrie Vineyards, Erath Winery and Sokol Blosser remain some of Oregon’s most celebrated producers, and all were founded in what is now Dundee Hills in the late 1960s and early 1970s.

TYPE

Red Wine, Pinot Noir

This red wine is relatively light and can pair with a wide variety of foods. The grape prefers cooler climates and the wine is most often associated with Burgundy, Champagne and the U.S. west coast. Regional differences make it nearly as fickle as it is flexible.
