Belle Pente Yamhill-Carleton PInot Noir 2014
Belle Pente Yamhill-Carleton PInot Noir 2014The bountiful harvest of 2014, bolstered by a warm growing season, created many terrific winemaking opportunities, including this drop-dead delicious Pinot noir that can grace your Wednesday night table for less than 30 bucks. Made from 100% “de-classified” estate fruit (ie barrels that were “left over” after we created our Belle Pente Vineyard and Estate Reserve blends), this fresh, friendly, fruit-forward wine is a delight to drink today, but could certainly be cellared for several years as well.
All 8 of our Pinot noir blocks contributed to this blend, with roughly half of the fruit coming from sections planted in 1999 to the Dijon 114 and 115 selections. Another quarter is comprised of fruit from our prized Pommard block (planted in 1998), and the balance includes small percentages of Wadensvil, Dijon 113, and 777. This clonal diversity provides a complexity that is rare in such an inexpensive bottling.
This cuvee delivers a great expression of both the vintage and the appellation. Wines from the warm 2014 growing season tend to be soft and supple, but balanced with adequate levels of acid and tannin. So they are lush and rich on the plate, but also crisp and clean. Flavors and aroma of dark berries are complimented with violet and anise notes. Fewer than 15% of the barrels used were new, and over half were at least 4 years old, so the time and place can shine, unencumbered by barrel influence.
Enjoy this wine today with hearty week-night fare!

Benoit Daridan Cheverny Red 2016
Benoit Daridan Cheverny Red 2016Cheverny is a French wine region in the Loire Valley that makes dry white wines, light red wines and rosé wines. The area received AOVDQS (Appellation d’Origine Vin Délimité de Qualité Supérieure) status in 1973, and then AOC (Appellation d’Origine Contrôlée) on 26 March 1993 when new regulatory laws were passed. The wine region is spread over 532 hectares, within 24 communes of the Loir-et-Cher department.
The white wines are composed of Sauvignon blanc grapes, at a proportion of 60%–80%, blended with Arbois, Chardonnay or Pineau Blanc de la Loire grapes. A small proportion is made into sparkling wine. The red wines are composed of Gamay grapes, at a proportion of 40%–65%, blended with Pinot noir grapes. Cabernet Franc and Côt can be used to make up to 15% of the wine. Pineau d’Aunis is added to these grape varieties when making rosés.
Black Cottage Pinot Noir 2016
Black Cottage Pinot Noir 2016With aromas of black cherry, violets, forest floor and caramelised sugar, the palate has notes of black forest chocolate gateaux, cardamom, chai, pink peppercorns and a touch of iodine. Underlying cranberry flavours are supported by a waxy mouthfeel and a juicy finish.
Cambria Pinot Noir 2015
Cambria Pinot Noir 2015Julia’s Vineyard, named for Julia Jackson in 1988, consists of ancient soils with fossilized seashells, shale, limestone, and sand, with fog-swept vines that have endured since the 1970s. This unique piece of land thrives in the cool, maritime influences that funnel in from the Pacific Ocean, allowing for the longest growing season in the state.
Ripe blackberry and blueberry flavors are followed by notes of cranberry, cherry, and pomegranate. With a balance of earth and baking spice, this wine offers firm tannins and a long finish.
And did we mention it’s vegan? It goes well with mushrooms and veggie pasta, but don’t be shy about pairing it with a lamb shank or plump pork chop. It’s probably not up to staring down a haunch of wild venison, but any of the Verité releases (also part of the Jackson family holdings) would work great!

This widely available bottling is an excellent choice for an attractive price. Aromas of hibiscus, pomegranate, raspberry and herbs lead into a palate with hints of game, red fruit and a touch of dried mint.
