Discreet at first but then slowly blooms into a supple and rich wine. Raspberry and spice aromas open to subtly powerful cherry, dark tea and orange peel flavors that finish with polished tannins. Drink now through 2024. 384 cases made.Author: Tim FishWine Advocate | Rating: 91
Pale to medium ruby-purple, the 2014 Pinot Noir Grace Vineyard delivers notions of red currant jelly, Black Forest cake and chocolate mint with hints of black pepper, fertile soil and cloves, plus a waft of cedar. Medium to full-bodied, the concentrated berry preserves flavors fill the mouth with voluptuous fruit, focused by firm, grainy tannins and a crisp backbone, finishing long and fruity.Author: Lisa Perrotti-Brown
Owners Ken and Grace Evenstad arrived in Oregon in 1989 to pursue their passion for Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. Their winemaker Tony Rynders, who holds a Masters in Enology from UC Davis, crafts impeccably balanced wines primarily from three low-yielding estate properties: Jerusalem Hill, Evenstad and Winery Hill. Syrah is produced under their Rock Block label.

Oregon has seen a huge boom in wine production in recent decades, as has the entire Pacific Northwest region. Once known for small wineries nestled amongst farmland, the Oregon wine industry has been the recipient of a huge capital influx, which has opened up new vine-growing territory and built numerous large-production brands. Although best known for Pinot Noir from the Willamette Valley, which sits at the same latitude as Burgundy, the state continues to build a reputation for Rhône and white varieties as well.
