It doesn't look south; it looks east toward the rising sun. Laurent Montalieu planted this block to a field blend of Pommard and Dijon 114 as an experiment, hoping to bring structure to future blends. However, these vines had a different idea. They thrive in the cool morning rays and are always the last block to be picked, giving them the full growing season to build their personality. Let’s raise a glass to marching to a different beat, facing a different direction, and growing amazing wine. THE WINERY After successful careers in the Oregon wine industry, Laurent Montalieu and Danielle Andrus- Montalieu purchased an 80-acre estate to commemorate their marriage in 2000. In May 2002, they launched Soléna by bottling their first vintage of Domaine Danielle Laurent Pinot noir and opening a tasting room in Carlton. Soléna is the combination of the Spanish and French words Solana and Soleil, celebrating the sun and the moon, and the name that Laurent and Danielle gave to their daughter. In May 2007, Danielle and Laurent added the spectacular 100- acre Hyland Vineyard in the McMinnville AVA to their estate vineyard holdings. - LOT #2 - CRISTOM VINEYARDS 2016 PINOT NOIR MARJORIE’S LONG GOODBYE LOT SIZE: 5 CASES VINEYARD: MARJORIE CLONES: POMMARD, WÄDENSWIL AVA: EOLA-AMITY HILLS WINEMAKERS: STEVE DOERNER and TOM GERRIE HARVEST DATES: SEPTEMBER 11–13, 2016 BOTTLING DATE: MARCH 1, 2018 ALCOHOL: 13.5% THE WINE A remarkable piece of Willamette Valley wine history, Cristom Vineyards 2016 Marjorie’s Long Goodbye Pinot noir is composed entirely of the precious few own-rooted vines remaining in our Marjorie Vineyard—the oldest planting on the Cristom estate, dating back to 1982. So few of these Pommard and Wädenswil vines remain that 2016 was the final vintage they produced enough to fill one small fermenter with 100% own-rooted fruit—yielding just three final barrels from the old vines. Marjorie’s Long Goodbye is a 66% Pommard, 34% Wädenswil blend from these three barrels, fermented with 55% whole clusters and aged 17 months in 66% new French oak. THE WINERY Cristom Vineyards began over a quarter of a century ago as a collaboration between an engineer and a biochemist who each possessed a deep-rooted respect for the land, the natural winemaking process, and Pinot noir. 26 years later, second-generation winegrower and owner Tom Gerrie leads winemaker Steve Doerner and our tenured viticulture team in tending our estate vineyards and producing elegant, dynamic wines, recognizable by our hallmark style of whole-cluster fermentation by native yeasts. - LOT #3 - J.K. CARRIERE 2016 PINOT NOIR LE CHOIX DE ST. DOLORES LOT SIZE: 5 CASES VINEYARD: ST. DOLORES AVA: CHEHALEM MOUNTAINS WINEMAKER: JIM PROSSER HARVEST DATE: SEPTEMBER 4, 2016 BOTTLING DATE: MARCH 6, 2018 ALCOHOL: 13.5% THE WINE J.K. Carriere's signature move is to build Pinot noirs of "power and grace" that age. We balance substantial wines on the back of some of the highest natural acidities found amongst domestic Pinot noir. "The Choice from St. Dolores" is once again the highest choice from our estate vineyard in 2016. Our mountainous, dry-land-farmed, organic vineyard has a duality about it, yielding wines that are both structured and juicy. Here, the wine's cherry backbone crackles with energy, projecting potency, vibrancy. This is pure, young and piercing stuff. Anything less might not otherwise attain sainthood.

Red and blue fruit on the nose lead to a juicy palate that is big and lush with soft, well-integrated tannins. This is a great example of the best of Shea Vineyard in the 2016 vintage. THE WINERY Shea Wine Cellars is an offshoot of Shea Vineyard, a 200-acre property with 140 acres planted to vines in the Yamhill-Carlton AVA. We began as growers with our first plantings back in 1989, selling our fruit to other wineries. The passion of the winemakers we worked with rubbed off and instilled in us a desire to produce world-class wines in addition to farming grapes. In 1996, Shea Wine Cellars began with one barrel of Pinot noir. Our production is now 5,500 cases of Pinot noir and 350 cases of Chardonnay, roughly 25% of Shea Vineyard’s annual crop production. - LOT #5 - ANGELA ESTATE 2016 PINOT NOIR JOHN F. ABBOTT LOT SIZE: 5 CASES VINEYARD: ABBOTT CLAIM BLOCK: POMMARD CLONE: POMMARD AVA: YAMHILL-CARLTON WINEMAKERS: KEN WRIGHT and ALBAN DEBEAULIEU HARVEST DATE: SEPTEMBER 27, 2016 BOTTLING DATE: JUNE 25, 2017 ALCOHOL: 13% THE WINE On May 27, 1860, New York stage coacher and entrepreneur John F. Abbott filed Donation Land Claim #945 in Oregon. Abbott was awarded 320 acres in the Yamhill-Carlton AVA in Oregon’s Willamette Valley. The apex of that original parcel is now known as the Abbott Claim Vineyard. We bottled five cases from the two most distinctive barrels from Abbott Claim’s Pommard block. These vines, planted by Ken Wright in 2000, crest the Savannah Ridge, digging their roots deep into 50-million-year-old fractured sandstone. The natural balance and poised power of this limited bottling display the pedigree of a long-storied land. THE WINERY Angela Estate is a luxury winery that exclusively produces estate, single-vineyard Pinot noir from the Yamhill-Carlton AVA. Our winemakers, Ken Wright and Alban Debeaulieu, collaborate with owners Antony and Angela Beck to create professionally respected and highly anticipated vintages of ageworthy, quaffable, collectible Pinot noir. - LOT #6 - ADELSHEIM VINEYARD and BERGSTRÖM WINES 2016 CHARDONNAY THE PIONEER AND THE PUNK LOT SIZE: 5 CASES VINEYARDS: RIBBON SPRINGS, LE PRE DU COL AVA: RIBBON RIDGE WINEMAKERS: DAVE PAIGE and JOSH BERGSTRÖM HARVEST DATE: AUGUST 22, 2016 BOTTLING DATE: JANUARY 17, 2018 ALCOHOL: 13.8% THE WINE The rarest of rare. A joint venture on only five cases of Chardonnay from the Willamette Valley's smallest and most sought-after AVA, the Ribbon Ridge. Bergström and Adelsheim— neighbors, friends and Oregon Chardonnay champions—have teamed up to produce a Chardonnay that brings the best of their two Ribbon Ridge estate vineyards together for one time only.
