RATINGS

95James Suckling

Nicely chalky and textural, this mineral-laden, medium-bodied wine goes deep and long, offering bright green apples alongside white peaches, toasted almonds and touches of butter and vanilla.

94The Wine Advocate

...pure scents of golden apples, quince peel, chamomile and wet stone. The medium-bodied palate balances a satiny texture and concentrated flavors with a vibrant acidity, and it has a long, softly savory finish. It's elegant and easy to drink!

93Wine Enthusiast

A fresh and breezy aromatic set of Bosc pears, white peaches and fresh-cut grass...flavors of lemon zest, Golden Delicious apples, green melons and some olive oil with a bite. Quite invigorating.

92Vinous / IWC

...delicate bouquet of baked apples and pears complemented by hints of chamomile and mint. Silky textures soothe, contrasted by crisp orchard fruits as a hint of lemon zest adds lovely depth.

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
