Top Oregon Picks for Your Holiday Table

The quality of Oregon’s wines has never been higher. Between older vines, a string of excellent vintages and, most importantly, the wealth of expertise and sense of community in the Willamette Valley, the wines we taste every week are absolutely stunning.  We’re highlighting three of our favorite producers, all of whom make wines that would be perfect for any special occasion this fall/winter, but you can see all of our Oregon Pinot and Oregon Chardonnay in the webstore, as well.

Beaux Freres and Sequitur

Mike Etzel, the founder and winemaker of Sequitur, is a living legend in the Willamette Valley.

Daniel Bouland

New Offer / New Sale


Daniel Bouland makes gutsy wines from old vines in the heart of Beaujolais premier appellations. You often hear that they’re traditionally made and, although that’s true, it doesn’t begin to describe what makes the wines unique. These are wines that recall what Beaujolais would have been like before industrial farming and certainly before industrial winemaking. They’re special, powerful and age-worthy.

From a winemaking perspective, the closest comparison to what Daniel Bouland is doing is probably Domaine Dujac. The cross-regional comparison probably violates some sort of law of wine-writing, but when you look at what Bouland does with his grapes, it makes sense.

William Kelley – Wine Advocate 88 points
“Already bottled, the 2017 Bourgogne Chardonnay offers up aromas of white flowers, citrus oil and wet stones. On the palate, its medium-bodied, elegantly glossy and succulent, though it’s quite tight-knit after its recent bottling. As usual, it’s an excellent introduction to the domain’s range.”

Newly Arrived CdP, Including Back Vintages

From Le Vieux Donjon


With a history dating back to the 1960s, Le Vieux Donjon is still shedding its baby fat when compared with many its neighbors in Châteauneuf-du-Pape. However, what Le Vieux Donjon lacks in history it more than makes up for in talent and heart. We’re excited to offer 6 vintages of the estate’s flagship Châteauneuf-du-Pape, including bottles from several of the Southern Rhône’s finest recent vintages.
