New Arrivals: "Best of Oregon"

 

By Patrick Dubsky 

 

The following two Pinots are rarely available at retail. Unique opportunity to collect these excellent wines. 

3 serene

2005 Domaine Serene Pinot Noir "Yamhill Cuvee" Willamette Valley, Oregon  

$42

 Highly perfumed nose displaying loads of red cherry, raspberry, dried blueberry, slight citrus, and cola. The palate is ripe and ample, showing red plum, black raspberry, caramel, clove, vanilla and violet with supple and well-balanced finish. - Tony Rynders, Winemaker

 Ken Wright

2006 Ken Wright Cellars Pinot Noir "Abbott Claim" Yamnhill-Carlton, Oregon 

$68

 A seductive style, bordering on plush, but not at all heavy, with a lean, lithe frame supporting a beautiful bead of blueberry, plum, espresso and spice aromas and flavors, persisting on the elegant finish.

Roclblock 

2005 Rockblock Syrah  "So No"

 by Domaine Serene,Oregon

$30

One of the most elegant domestic Syrah I have tasted. Soft, plush and generous with its coffee-accented plum, berry and exotic spice flavors, built to entice with well-integrated tannins, and long enough on the finish to warrant cellaring.
