Our Wines


We have a simple belief that the land is the most important factor to producing an expressive wine. We treat it with kid gloves. We dry farm allowing the vines to send their roots deep for water, extracting intense flavors from our Laurelwood soil and underlying volcanic Jory soil. We use organic farming practices to keep nature in balance closer to the surface. Means more work for us. But we think it shows in the quality of the wine.
We currently ship direct-to consumer in the following states:
2018
Estate Sparkling Brut
Made in the Champenoise method, this sparkling wine is a combination of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay from our estate grapes. Went into secondary fermentation in the bottle in April of 2019 and has been gathering flavors for almost 4 years before being disgorged in February 2023. Its sister 2017 vintage was chosen as Wine & Spirits’ ‘Year’s Best US Sparklers’.

2021
Brut Rosé
Demand was so great for the 2020 Brut Rosé we decided to do it all over again. This 2021 Brut Rosé sparkler will delight the senses. Made from two of our Pinot Noir clones, Dijon 115 and Pommard. Fermented in stainless steel and neutral oak for freshness & vitality.
Pairs oh so well with spicy foods.

2022
Brut Rosé
Ruby red grapefruit and ultra fresh raspberry aromatics delight the senses leading to elegant mouth covering palate, with a touch of brioche from the contact of the lees during fermentation. Grapes were picked earlier to promote structure expected from a traditional Brut Rose. Saignée method used to adjust for color. A wonderful comparison with its sister 2021 vintage!

2022
Estate Pinot Gris
Coming from our superb north-facing 27 year old Block 2 vines, this Pinot Gris was fermented longer and slower to preserve the unique characteristics of the old vines. Peach, nectarine, white rose pedals, and mouth watering textures make this refreshing wine surprisingly rich at the same time.
New Release

2021
Touch of Gold Estate Chardonnay
Named after our horse palomino-coated Missouri Foxtrotter, Touch, whose official name is Lucky Touch of Gold. This estate Chardonnay was made from several of our estate Chardonnay clones. Barrel fermented with minimal stirring. This a textural wine reflecting the ripe characteristics of the vintage restrained by an early pick in order to maintain balance and acidity. Again a wine that can be enjoyed now but will improve with age.

2021
Estate Rosé of Pinot Noir
Once again, made in a lighter Cote de Provence style. Comprised of two Pinot Noir clones, Dijon 115 and Pommard selected for freshness and vitality. Barrel-fermented in 60% neutral oak and 40% stainless steel. Pairs wonderfully with any spicy food.
Only 110 cases made.

2022
Estate Rosé of Pinot Noir
Fermented two ways: in stainless steel at colder temperatures to preserve freshness and fruitfulness. And in neutral oak barrels at higher temps to help promote richness.
Combination yields a fresh, acid driven, elegant and vibrant Rose. Flavors of strawberry, kiwi, and watermelon rind are all prevalent in this wine.

2018
Estate Pinot Noir
Picked from various estate blocks, this wine is a reflection of its place in 2018. The warm and very dry growing season led to wines of intensity. The wine was in barrel for 10 months comprised of 15% new French oak. This wine shows the characteristics of the vintage with dark red fruit and earthy / spicy notes. The wine has the guts to age for many years. A faithful representation of our property.
91 Points JamesSuckling.com: “Juicy and velvety with vibrant character and a spicy finish.”

2018
Three Tuxedos Reserve Pinot Noir
Lovingly named after our three tuxedo cats—from whence our bow-tie logo and notched label also derives, this selection comprises the best barrels of the vintage–40% new french oak.
The 2018 vintage produced dense wines in the dark red to black fruit spectrum with an earthiness enhanced by the savory characteristics of our Laurelwood soil. This wine will only get better in time.
92 Points JamesSuckling.com: “Dark, spicy and focused with excellent structure and a savory finish.”

2019
Estate Pinot Noir
A blend of our 5 estate Pinot Clones. In barrel for 10 months comprised of 56% new French oak. Dark red (and blue) fruit with earth and spice notes. A faithful representation of our property.
94 Points JamesSuckling.com: A fuller-bodied pinot for a 2019 with ripe and juicy fruit in the center palate, enveloped with blue fruit and hibiscus flowers. Chewy and tannic at the end. It will age nicely”

2019
Three Tuxedos Reserve Pinot Noir
Lovingly named after our three tuxedo cats—from whence our bow-tie logo and notched label also derives, this selection comprises the best barrels of the vintage with 45% new french oak.
The 2019 vintage produced dense wines in the red to black fruit spectrum with an earthiness enhanced by the savory characteristics of our Laurelwood soil. This wine will only get better in time.
94 Points JamesSuckling.com: “Strawberry and floral aromas with some stems, following through to a full body with firm and tight tannins and a fresh, vivid finish. Bright and so pretty and nicely structured”

2019
Symphony Pinot Noir
Designed as an all-star wine of the Willamette Valley. Sourced from three prized vineyards in three nested AVA’s of the WV: Chehalem Mountains, Yamhill-Carlton and McMinnville. 60% Pommard brings an incredible nose to this 2019 but already delicious wine. Like adding instruments for a richer orchestra sound, this wine brings together a symphony of flavors deserving of its name.
95 Points JamesSuckling.com: “A complete pinot, showing plenty of cooked-cherry and strawberry aromas with highlights of pie crust. Full and layered with round tannins that give texture and polish to the wine. Extremely well structured and thought-out.”
