2022	Eola Hills Wine Cellars	Pinot Noir Willamette Valley	This lighter-bodied Pinot Noir offers a perfume of dusty roadside raspberries and dried rose petals to catch your attention. Its easygoing acidity and soft texture act as a pillow for flavors of muddled black cherries and a wee bit of fig jam. The wine’s plush tannins and moderate acidity manage to keep up with all of that fruit. Best Buy.	Wine Enthusiast	Best Buy		2025-08-18
2021	Pursued by Bear	Cabernet Sauvignon Columbia Valley	The black fruit aroma is a mix of tart blackberries and sweet, ripe damson plums, all backed by puffs of dark chocolate and wet concrete. Flavors like black cherry and black tea are spiced with cardamom and pepper. The wine’s acidity buzzes softly, pairing with velvety tannins to create a satiny texture. This bear is a dinner table necessity, especially if roast beef is involved. Editor’s Choice.	Wine Enthusiast	94		2025-08-18

2023	Eola Hills Wine Cellars	Pinot Gris Willamette Valley	With its aromas of tangerines and a batch of fresh-picked carnations, this Pinot Gris is like aromatherapy in wine form. The light-bodied wine’s green apple and cinnamon flavors are tart and spicy, but its acidity is softer than I was expecting. I might try this Pinot Gris with a fresh goat cheese salad. Best Buy.

2024	Ryan Patrick	Sauvignon Blanc Columbia Valley	The initial lemon aroma is quickly encircled by the wine’s herbal explosion of dill, fennel and fresh-cut grass notes. With tangy acidity supporting them, flavors like lemon zest and lemongrass tea rule the palate, joined by hints of guava and a bitter arugula note. A tangy mouthfeel makes this an invigorating wine to sip with fresh goat cheese and chunks of baguette. Best Buy.	Wine Enthusiast	Best Buy		2025-08-18
2018	Elia Palazzesi	Brunello di Montalcino 'Riserva'	On the nose, earthy, cool aromas of damp top soil and coffee grinds are balanced by crunchy, barely ripe berries and just a hint of vanilla. The berries turn sweet and ripe on the palate and are joined by bergamot, before the earth tones reemerge. Acid bounces around tannins that are polished, but clingy.	Wine Enthusiast	95		2025-08-18

2023	Frey	Sauvignon Blanc North Coast	Made from organic grapes, this wine is fresh and bright, with ripe cantaloupe, guava, citrus, white nectarine and dried spice on the nose.

2023	Arnaud Combier	Soreli ‘Vents Contraire’	An interesting wine with a noticeable grip on the palate, this showcases clear skin-contact influence. Notes of orange peel and poached peach give it depth, and it’s best enjoyed with food to bring out its full character.	Wine Enthusiast	90		2025-08-18
