1999 Beaux Freres just added to our cellar!

A quote from Mike Etzel, “A vintage hailed by wine pundits as a great one for Oregon Pinot Noir. It was a year of relatively high yields (even for us) and a spectacular growing year followed by very good harvest conditions.”

Memorial Day Weekend!

Memorial Day Weekend this year was a highly anticipated one for the staff as well as the public, and did not disappoint! Dick and Nancy Ponzi delighted us with a re-release of just two cases of the 2005 Il Luce Ponzi pinot noir! This highly coveted wine was originally released in 2007 and sold out in record time. Luisa made only two barrels of this gorgeous pinot noir and it joined the 2005 vintage as one of only 4 single vineyard pinots in Ponzi Vineyards history. Talk about a treat!
