2007 Hers and His Reserves

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Text Box: Amalie’s Cuvée is a Pommard and Wadenswil clone blend of Pinot Noir. These are the two clones that established Oregon Pinot Noir in the late 1960s. However, it is Dena that gives the final nod to the blend. “It has to show pretty fruit and balance. I want to see the elegant side of Pinot Noir in my cuvée.” It’s also personal, as “Amalie” is Dena’s middle name. - 91 points Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar, July/August 2010

 

 

 

Text Box: Estate is Ernie’s selection and is often described as Amalie’s big brother. It has more weight in the mid-palate and more structure in the finish. However, the blend has to have Dena’s approval. When asked about the blending process, Ernie is quick to point out, “She has veto power.” This wine completes the “Hers and His” effort. - 91 points Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar, July/August 2010  

 

Text Box: The Reserve is what happens when we work together. The blend of our two favorite barrels, again, earns the top score of the vintage. - 93 points Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar, July/August 2010   All of our Pinot Noirs are 100% estate grown fruit. Our winemaking style is traditional, with indigenous yeast and whole cluster fermentations. We cellar our wines for 12-18 months in French Oak. Bottled unfined & unfiltered. “Pretty fruit, nice acid.”®
