Foris Pinot Gris Foris Pinot Gris $15.00

Pinot Gris from Oregon, light and semi sweet, with flavors of pears, green apples and melon, Adam had to search long and hard for this little gem from the Rogue Valley. Yes, the alcohol is a little high but what tremendous flavor. Enjoy!


Montinore Almost Dry Riesling Montinore Almost Dry Riesling $15.00

The nose offers stone and light petroleum. Palate brings some pear, pineapple, lime and soft peach. Nice solid body, lingering apple on the finish. Very good bang for the buck. Family owned organic and biodynamic in the Willamette Valley.


Daisy Pinot Grigio Daisy Pinot Grigio $15.00

Almost Alsatian in style, Daisy is playful and dead serious. Soft citrus, and floral aromas with laser sharp acidity bringing stone fruits, lemon curd, river rock and a clean but lingering finish nuance. Body from the barrel fermentation with indigenous yeasts, further complexity from 5 months in almost neutral French oak.


Rainstorm Rainstorm $15.00

Cool climate Willamette fruit blended with warm dry Umpqua fruit gives this Pinot the best of both worlds at a good price! Full ripe juicy flavor but with nice subtlety and nuance. Extremely easy drinking and the perfect partner to grilled salmon or pork loin. Herbs de Provence really bring out the character of this wine.


Browne Tribute Browne Tribute $21.00

A Cab Sauv dominant blend with Cab Franc, Merlot, Petite Verdot, Malbec and Syrah all playing supporting roles. Dark, brambly fruits, herbaceous bell pepper and jalapeno notes on the nose. Big body and grippy tannin well balanced by its acidity. A great example of Columbia Valley.


Sokol Blosser Bluebird Sokol Blosser Bluebird $22.00

A great cuvee from grapes sourced out of Oregon and Washington. Chardonnay with a little Muller-Thurgau in the blend. Apple and baked pear, shining acidity and a lovely, creamy mousse. Family owned and operated in the Dundee Hills of Oregon, a great P.N.W. sparkling, perfect with seafood or a sunny patio.


Cristom Mt. Jefferson Pinot Noir Cristom Mt. Jefferson Pinot Noir $34.00

Light ruby color. The Mt Jefferson Cuvee displays crushed raspberry, strawberry and red currant aromas. There are higher tones of tomato leaf and cola berry along with some brambly notes. It follows through on the palate with a core of ripe red fruits and notes of spicy complexity (cinnamon, allspice). Lower octave flavors of truffle and forest floor are forming as the wine rounds out in the finish.


Vidon Brigita Vidon Brigita $49.00

Using clone 777 exclusively this Willamette award winner shows rich, ripe fruit of blackberry with jammy plum and a hint of herbal character. Also shows some dark cherry, cocoa and leather. Best of their clonal selections with great complexity and a lengthy finish.

    #2 Tintero Moscato

    Sori Gramella refers to the one of the only single vineyard Moscatos, and Marco is the only producer to bottle this striking limestone amphitheater commercially. Once the 30 year old vines give up their bounty, and the grapes are harvested and pressed, they are kept in stainless steel at a low temperature to prevent fermentation until an order is received in order to provide the freshest wine possible.

  • Gotes del Priorat

    Gotes del Priorat

    A slightly different and wonderful lighter take on Priorat. The gorgeous blue slate show immediately on the nose, Carignan is there but with richness and elegance. Really pretty and an homage to the fruit. Gorgeous leather and blue black fruit flavors with spice and soft leather. Organic, hand picked and just 9 months in French, this really is a lovely wine!

  • Maimai Syrah

    Maimai Syrah

    So pretty. Brings a clear nose of Gimblett Gravels terroir beneath lush soft blue and black fruit with lovely violet and lavender notes. Palate is clean, balanced and very approachable. Just a hint of the Northern Rhone's meatiness but mostly bright fruit and enough acidity to hold it in check. Maybe the best NZ Syrah out there??
