Greetings Fellow Wine Lovers!

     Its time to get excited!  This April, we will be visiting Wine Enthusiasts 2016 Wine Growing region of the year, the promised land for Pinot Noir in the US, the Pinot Powerhouse, the one and only, drum roll please.. Willamette Valley!  Trust me, youll be applauding once you taste these wines!

     Willamette Valley is not only Oregons leading wine region with seven unique sub-avas, but  is also recognized as one of the premier Pinot Noir producing areas of the world, which is why over 70% of all vine plantings in Willamette are Pinot Noir!  With climate and landscape mirroring that of Northern Europe, it is the perfect place for cool climate varietals like Pinot Noir Riesling, and Pinot Blanc.

    With Pinot perfected in the pure caliber of these wines, we couldnt pass up the opportunity to share these truly first-class wines with you!

         We hope youll be able to join us!

Sincerely,

Ashley Esposito, Manager

Emilio Amato, Owner
