Wine from Oregon
Filter
Three major American Vitacultural Areas produce wine in Oregon. The Southern Oregon, Willamette Valley, and the Columbia George AVA. All of these are fully contained in Oregon. The Columbia Gorge AVA includes territory in both Washington and Oregon. Parts of the Walla Wall Valley Ava are primarily located in Washington, but descend into Oregon. Several other AVA’s are within the larger regions and include the Snake River Valley.
The Umpqua Valley, like most of the regions in Oregon, produces Pinot Noir and includes the sub-region Red Hill Douglas Country Oregon. The AVA in Southern Oregon was established in 2004 allowing two principal regions to market themselves jointly.
Winemaking in Oregon is fairly new, but is growing fast. The climate is cool and with no high mountains, separating the Pacific Ocean from the vineyards. Winemaking and grape growing in Oregon is very different from California. 60% of the wine that is produced in Oregon is red. Most of the wineries in Oregon are family-owned and small in comparison to vineyards in California.
Pinot Noir is the flagship wine in Oregon with most of the wineries producing the red wine. The cool climate in Oregon makes it perfect for the grape.

Resonance Decouverte Vineyard Pinot Noir is made from 100 percent Pinot Noir.
The wine reflects a beautiful and brilliant garnet color, with an expressive and complex nose of strawberry, plum, wild cherry, almond and licorice. The wine reveals an elegant palate, vibrant and complex, with delicate notes of noble wood, and very long and mineral finale.
Review:
Lots of fresh cherries and strawberries on the nose, as well as bark, dried mushroom and citrus peel. It’s medium-bodied and juicy with silky tannins. Some serious, earthy undertones to the red-fruit flavors. Drink or hold.

Sokol Blosser Big Tree Block Pinot Noir is made from 100 percent Pinot Noir.
1970 was winding down when our founders, Bill Blosser and Susan Sokol Blosser pulled their ’68 VW Camper up to an abandoned prune orchard some 30 miles southwest of Portland. These moonstruck kids had little farming experience and just a basic knowledge of winemaking. What they did have, in abundance, was a passion for growing the Pinot Noir grape and creating world-class wine. Soon after settling on this extraordinary land, they planted their first vines and cinched their place as pioneers in Oregon’s budding wine industry.
Review:
A very impressive wine for the striking sense of spice, white-pepper and briary, forest notes, across red cherries. The palate has sapid, focused style with such taut yet silky tannins holding long and true. Pure red cherries here. Drink or hold.

Most vineyards in the Russian River Valley share a common influence—the cooling effect that follows the river inland from the Pacific coast. The resulting fog gracefully envelops the vines at night, providing a crucial respite from the daytime heat. These diurnal temperature shifts delicately slow down ripening, nurturing nuanced flavors in the grapes, earning this region its well-deserved title as the heartland of California Pinot Noir.
Fact of Note: This Russian River Valley blend was the longest to ferment in oak from our Appellation Series.
Fefinanes Albarino de 1583 Albarino is made from 100% Albarino.
Aged for 5 months in oak barrels (a combination of fine-grained American and French Allier barrels).
1583 is the birth date of the Viscount of Fefinanes, Gonzalo Sarmiento Valladares, builder of the Castle of Fefinanes, in Cambados.
They wanted to pay tribute to their ancestor with this wine that managed to reach a perfect harmony between the fruitiness of the Albarino grape and the complexity brought by the oak aging.
Lovely straw yellow color, clean and bright. The nose is reminiscent of ripe crystallized fruit and spices. The palate is elegant, round and well balanced, with a silky texture.
Excellent with shellfish, grilled or stewed fish, white meats, poultry.
