Let’s be honest, there is no winery in Oregon that has a set up anywhere near the one at Domaine Drouhin. It’s a breathtaking estate in the heart of Oregon’s oldest and most prestigious AVA, the Dundee Hills- home to heavy hitters like Domaine Serene, Drouhin, Eyrie and Antica Terra.
But unlike those other wineries, Drouhin is home to a 235-acre estate, a world class four-level gravity flow winery, a secret garden and one of the very best, most knowledgeable winemakers in the world, Burgundian Veronique Drouhin– who flies her private jet between her two estates in Beaune and Dundee making the wines for both Domaine Joseph Drouhin and Domaine Drouhin Oregon.
Veronique is wine royalty. No, I’m serious. She was born into one of the most famous wine families in the world. Her first sip of wine was an 1856 Burgundy. Wasn’t everyone’s?
In 1986, she turned down an internship opportunity from Robert Mondavi for what her father thought was a better fit in Oregon, where she was invited to learn from Adelsheim, Bethel Heights and Eyrie. Two years later, she and her father would establish Domaine Drouhin Oregon- becoming the first French winery to do so.
Since then, she’s been the standard everyone is chasing.
Her Domaine Drouhin winery year in and year out is one of the most decorated in the state, but in no vintage more so than the 2019 vintage.

The 2019 Pinot Noir Dundee Hills is defined, expressive and layered, with pure lavender, peppercorn and wild berry aromas and a velvety texture with bursts of freshness that highlight floral perfume and an array of spicy accents on the extended finish.
94 Points, James Suckling
A very pretty combination of dried berries, smoke and cedar with some dried flowers, following through to a medium body, a solid core of fruit and a round yet firm, tannic finish. Young, but so attractive. Give it two or three years to open.

The new release is here from outstanding winemaking team of Michel Rolland, Charles Thomas, Andy Erickson and David Jelenik. This one always represents one of the best quality-to-price ratios in all of Napa Cab and in the stellar 2021 vintage, this really stands out as one of the best the Valley has to offer. It’s a racy mix of Coombsville fruit from Atlas Peak that absolutely roars out of the bottle. Always one of Napa’s great bargains and a must have even as the price starts to sneak up here a little bit.
WS #4 2019 Wine of the Year, 96 Points, Wine Spectator
2016 was an incredibly special year in Napa Valley. It was essentially the 5th straight vintage of near perfect-conditions and a lot of the big boys produced some of their biggest, most elegant Cabernets to date. Groth’s was still one of the standouts in any group, a deeply concentrated, weighty Cab with sappy, juicy fruit and a carefully intertwined tannic structure. Absolutely gorgeous.

Xavier Vignon’s brand spanking new CDR 100% is a thing of beauty. It’s already got a blessing from Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate who described this wine as, “Full-bodied, concentrated and supple”. This is a gorgeous and intricate blend that features all of the Southern Rhone appellations. This year, the blend was 40% Grenache, 25% Mourvedre, 15% Syrah, 7% Cinsault, 7% Marselan, 6% Terret Noir. Nobody can do it like the mad scientist, Xavier Vignon.
Winemaker Kian Tavakoli (Opus One, Clos du Val) continues to excel even while others struggle. In 2017, he still managed to deliver a beautiful and opulent Napa Valley Cabernet that’s both dark and juicy. The wine hails from both Coombsville and Rutherford, giving it distinct characteristics and a lot of drive. Deep ruby to the rim with excellent concentration, notes of Bing cherries, raspberry pie and hints of vanilla. On the palate, big wonderfully jammy fruit with young but impressive tannins and great length. The finish leaves notes of black cherry, and baked blueberry pie. Fantastic Napa value.
