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.

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.

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.
Anne Sery describes her Trousse Chemise Cabernets as an ode to the Left Bank and her winemaking roots. It’s a beautiful and fresh Cabernet with aromas that leap from the glass with of black raspberry, violets, and creme de liquor notes. The mouth gives generous amounts of juicy black fruits at the core with hints of baking spice and a smooth, savory finish. This is a terrific partner for just about anything from hard cheese, to poultry, summer salads, you name it!
With seemingly infinite access to some of the absolute very best vineyards in the most choice AVAs in the valley, the Wagner’s set out to make Quilt– a Cabernet blend from a patchwork of the top sites in Napa (Oakville, St Helena, Atlas Peak, Coombsville, Calistoga, and Howell Mountain.) The brand new 2021 edition is a beauty – deeply concentrated, rich and a truly show stopping Cabernet. It’s a dark, hedonistic blend that combines elegance with power and pairs the two together effortlessly.

“Vignon’s 2019 Chateauneuf du Pape delivers even more than I hoped for based on a previous sample. Hints of garrigue, roses, cherries and raspberries appear on the nose, while the palate is full-bodied, silky and long, with an intense, almost briny finish. The assemblage is 50% Grenache, 10% each Mourvèdre and Syrah, plus smaller proportions of seven other permitted varieties, while the élevage includes foudres, demi-muids, concrete and wooden tanks, plus terracotta amphorae.”
