This is a predominately American wine list. We serve wine from all over America but mainly from Oregon. Oregon are bordered by Washington on the north and California in the south. We also serve amazing Riesling from New York State on the east coast. In the kitchen we focus on the combination of the Swedish West coast and the East coast in America and our wine list’s ambition is to make a full circle. We can proudly say that we have the largest selection of Oregon wine on our list, outside of Oregon of course. Pinot Noir is the main grape variety in Oregon and we hope you will revel our wide range of delicious Pinot Noirs. If you are up for European wine we have the classics and some great wildcards once in a while. Enjoy, and remember seven days without wine makes one weak!

    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.
