Our Wines
We produce a few different Oregon Pinot Noirs, the number of which depends on the character of the vintage and what each of our individual vineyards gave us from the year. Our total annual production averages 2,500-3,000 cases, with no plans grow the brand any larger.
Our mission is to hand-craft small lots of exquisite Pinot Noir. To us that means wines that are focused on elegance and finesse, the benchmarks of what we consider to be the very heart and soul of Pinot Noir. The goal is wines that will seduce you, rather than hit you over the head. Think Audrey Hepburn, rather than Pamela Anderson.
Every vintage we produce our two mainstay wines, Audrey and La Paulée. Additionally we may produce a few micro-production bottlings of a couple hundred cases or less — often from single vineyards or individual single blocks. From the outstanding 2008 vintage, we have produced a wine we call D122 (available now) from our six best barrels of Ribbon Ridge Vineyard, and a wine named Dom Denise (to be released in September 2010) from Biodynamically-grown fruit in Momtazi Vineyard.

Importing Burgundies-Scott Paul Selections
In 2006 we launched our Burgundy import company, Scott Paul Selections. We import nearly 100 different wines from 15 producers and sell them nationally through our distribution channels, as well as offer them for tasting and for sale in our tasting room. Red Burgundies are produced from the same grape we grow here — Pinot Noir — allowing us to offer visitors the unique opportunity to taste New World Pinot from Oregon and Old World Pinot from Burgundy side by side. Scott's passion for wine was born over many bottles of great Burgundy on the family dinner table while growing up in Chicago. He's a student of all things Burgundian, and spends up to eight weeks each year in the region working closely with all of our producers.
