2017 Spirito Brut Rosé Willamette Valley Oregon Furioso Vineyards Furioso Vineyards was founded in 2014 by proprietor Giorgio Furioso. Our Dundee Hills estate vineyard, previously known as the “Juliard Vineyard,” was established in 1972 and is highly acclaimed by many local winemakers for producing grapes of remarkable quality. Renamed the Furioso Vineyard in 2015, we focus intensely on organic farming and viticulture so we can ensure and maintain the highest quality, from the first leaf through to harvest and beyond. Current plantings on our Dundee Hills AVA estate date back to 1972. Blocks 1, 2, 3, 4, and 6 are Pinot Noir, with Block 5 planted in Chardonnay. Overall, the Pinot blocks contain 80% own rooted Pommard and 20% Dijon 115. Our Yamhill- Carlton estate Trovato Vineyard’s 22.5 acres are planted in 11 clones of Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and Tocai Friulano. In August 2015, Dominique Mahé was hired as Furioso Vineyards’ Winemaker. Dominique embraces the practices of a “light hand” so you may taste the true terroir of our estate vineyards: mild extraction, un-fined, unfiltered, and natural fermentation wines. Vintage: This brut rosé from the 2017 vintage is 80% Pinot Noir and 20% Chardonnay from two vineyards in the Willamette Valley. 36 months en tirage, our fourth and final disgorgement of the last 160 cases took place in March 2021. Tasting Notes: Salmon pink in color, the wine offers bright floral aromatics with pure notes of apricot and sharp green apple. In the mouth, it delivers an extra layer of raspberry while the fine bubbles burst into a creamy mouthfeel which leads to a refreshing finish. Perfectly balanced, this spirited sparkling rose will be a great pairing for any celebration. ~Winemaker Dominique Mahé. September 2018.

It’s the Place, Stupid! Volume 7, Issue 22 August 4, 2009 Papa Pinot’s Legacy Pervades 2009 IPNC “David Lett defined the term “visionary,” sailing against a strong current as he fulfilled the promise of Oregon wine. He planted grapes where others deemed it impossible, understanding that the very finest wines are often grown where it is most perilous, and he thrived on that challenge. His personality set the tone for the character of the Oregon wine industry, and his stunning wines rewarded his fearlessness, focus and independence. For those who prefer their opinions strong and their wines elegant, David was your man. What an inspiration.” Ted Farthing, Oregon Wine Board Executive Director, Oregon Wine Press, January 2009 Each July for the past twenty-four years, McMinnville, Oregon, has become Beaune in the USA. 700 Pinot geeks from all over the country and from every corner of the world descend on this inauspicious town to celebrate the fickle darling of wine cognoscenti and revel in their indulgence. The International Pinot Noir Celebration (IPNC) is held on the intimate and bucolic campus of Linfield College, but there is no homework or written tests, and no dreadful lectures at 8:00 in the morning, just an abundance of great Pinot Noir paired with the delicious bounty of Oregon prepared by the Pacific Northwest’s most talented chefs, and plenty of joie de vivre. This year’s IPNC, held on July 24-26, 2009, marked the twenty-third event, dating back to 1987, when a group of grape farmers and winemakers assembled to figure out a way to promote Oregon wine.

Thanks to favorable weather at bloom and an extended warm growing season with no weather pressures, growers with heavier crop loads than in the past were blessed with fully ripened and mature fruit. Overall, yields are well up from the previous two harvests, where smaller fruit sets and other weather pressures produced lower than average yields.

Pinot Noir is a capricious child that rewards humility Volume 10, Issue 10 May 13, 2015 Oregon Wine Is Killing It! It seemed only natural to kick off this May issue with a tasting of Oregon wines since May is Oregon Wine Month. The Oregonians have plenty to celebrate, as the wine business is killing it, leading the nation in wine sales in 2014. According to the 2015 Wine Sales Report by Ship Compliant, Oregon had the fastest growth in direct to consumer (DtC) sales to customers in 2014, over double the next leading region. The figures reflect an increasing demand for Pinot Noir, and Oregon Pinot Noir in particular, across the country. The volume of DtC shipments of cases of Oregon wine increased 46% in 2014, compared to regions in California and the rest of the U.S. that were below 16% increases in volume. DtC shipments from Oregon wineries increased 53% in value. The average cost of a bottle of Oregon wine was $39.72, a 4.2% increase over 2013. Since most Oregon wineries are small (5,000 cases or less production annually), they lack distribution and must concentrate on DtC sales through wine clubs and other marketing ventures. Full Glass Research study found that the Oregon wine industry had an economic impact of $3.3 billion in 2013. Planted acreage increased by 18 percent since 2011, the number of wineries increased by 45 percent and there was a 39 percent increase in sales. Part of the success has been a focus on the higher-quality, higher- priced segment of the wine market.

Eyrie Pinot Noir Single Vineyards
ESTATE SINGLE VINEYARD PINOT NOIR COLLECTION THE VITICULTURE & VINIFICATION Our five vineyards are all remarkable examples of Pinot noir in the Willamette Valley. Not only has each been farmed organically since inception, each vineyard contains ungrafted, pre-Phylloxera plantings that are vanishingly rare in the world of wine. These five cuvées are produced identically, with the same fermentation regimes of wild yeast and small fermentation vessels, followed by aging in blends of cooperage with 12% new oak in each. The result is a fascinating journey up the Dundee Hills, from our lowest elevation Sisters vineyard at 220’ up to our highest elevation Daphne vineyard at 860’. Each wine reflects facets of soil, site, exposure, and vine age that together capture a precise portrait of how variations in place can influence Pinot noir. ABOUT THE EYRIE VINEYARDS In January of 1965, Eyrie founder David Lett arrived in Oregon with 3,000 grapevine cuttings and a theory. He believed that the Willamette Valley had the right combination of climate and soil to produce Pinot noir unmatched outside of Burgundy. Inspired by a pair of red-tailed hawks thatmade their nest, an eyrie, in the fir trees overlooking their first vineyard site, David and his new bride Diana christened their fledgling endeavor The Eyrie Vineyards. Just as the descendants of those hawks still make their home above the vineyard, David and Diana’s son Jason continues the Lett family tradition of producing fine Eyrie wines.

DUNDEE, OREGON Grower First founded in 1987 “There was a pioneering spirit growing grapes in Oregon and I felt I could make a difference here” - Rollin Soles, Argyle Founder argyle’s onehouse: it’s a people process Argyle prides itself on its ‘deep bench’. With over 100 years of combined experience at Argyle, our take on endurance extends to the long term commitment of our key personalities. a founding intent Rollin Soles Argyle Founder Argyle Winery was founded in 1987 by Rollin Soles as a Grower First, with the purpose of growing and making world class Sparkling Wine in the perfectly suited, cool climate of Oregon’s Willamette Valley.

“Pinot Noir Made with Consideration for the Environment, Employees, and Community Simply Tastes Better.”
“Pinot Noir made with consideration for the environment, employees, and community simply tastes better.” WillametteValleyVineyards.com 8800 Enchanted Way SE · Turner, Oregon 97392 · 1-800-344-9463 · [email protected] Jim Bernau, Founder/Winegrower Building aDream The “budwood” of Willamette Valley Vineyards began long before its founding in 1983 by vintner Jim Bernau. His Dad, a Roseburg lawyer, was hired by a California winemaker to secure one of the first winery licenses in Oregon since Prohibition. Jim’s Dad allowed small tastes of Richard Sommer’s wine at the dinner table, lighting a path that led Jim from home winemaking to studies at UC Davis and eventually Beaune, France. His early “winemaking” grew more from mischief when at the age of 10, he liberated his Mom’s frozen Concord grape juice from the freezer following the description of fermentation in the family’s set of Encyclopedias. In 1983, with the encouragement from winemakers making their move from California, Jim cleared away an old pioneer plum orchard in the Salem Hills, hidden underneath scotch broom and blackberry vines. Unable to afford drip irrigation, he watered them by hand using 17 lengths of 75’ garden hose to get the grapelings through their first summer. America’s Community-Funded Winery Willamette Valley Vineyards became the first SEC authorized community-funded business in the U.S. through the first successful Regulation A self-underwritten public offering in 1989. The winery has grown with the support of wine enthusiasts through Preferred Stock Ownership (NASDAQ: WVVIP) funding new vineyards, wineries and experiences. Winery Owners gather at the Groundbreaking Celebration in 2017 to help harvest the first Pinot Noir crop from Bernau Estate Vineyard.

Pinot Noir is part of a well- lived life Volume 9, Issue 25 June 1, 2013 Pinot Noir Doctors “Inside each of us there’s another man or woman dying to get out. That other person is your alter ego, who begs you to cast aside your tedious, day-to-day routine and thrust yourself into the life you’ve always dreamed of living.” Fred W. Frailey, Editor, Kiplinger’s Although he was the most famous “Wine Doctor” and often called America’s greatest winemaker, Andre Tchelistcheff was not a licensed medical practitioner. There is, however, an extensive list of medical doctors who are winery owners, winegrowers or winemakers. In addition, there are many doctors who have combined their medical background and enjoyment of wine to become advocates of wine as part of a healthy lifestyle. Many Pinot Noir winemakers started out in a career path to become medical doctors. Examples abound, such as Dan Goldfield (Dutton-Goldfield), Natalie West (Foppiano Vineyards), Eric Hammacher (Hammacher Wines), Rod Berglund (Joseph Swan Vineyards), and Cécile Lemerie-Dèrbes (Derbès Wines) According to Wine into Word (James Gabler), the first book about wine was published by Arnaldus of Villanova, who was a physician, surgeon, botanist, alchemist, philosopher, writer, astrologer, lay theologian and counselor to kins and popes. About 1310, Arnald wrote a book on wine, but because the printing press had not yet been invented, his book was initially handwritten. In 1478, his book was translated into German and printed, making it the first book on wine to use this new invention. The first complete book in English on wine was by William Turner (1568), and the first (Sir Edward Berry), the second (Robert Shannon), and third (Alexander Henderson) books in English that discuss modern wines were written by physicians.
