Domaine Drouhin Oregon 2008 Arthur Chardonnay (Dundee Hills)

Online Exclusive

Price $38

A delicate, elegant style of Chardonnay, with Burgundian hints of stone and honeysuckle, apple and citrus. The flavors gather in the back of the throat and linger there, propped up with juicy acidity and buttery barrel toast. A delightful bottle and perfectly balanced for poultry or seafood. — P.G.

Domaine Drouhin Oregon 2005 Laurène Pinot Noir

Price $65

This is essentially DDO’s reserve Pinot Noir; it requires some patience at first, because it is quite tight, almost inscrutable. With many hours of breathing it fleshes out and opens up, revealing a wine with interesting nuances of cured meat, mushroom and light earth. The fruit is a notch more concentrated and full than the regular DDO, but retains a sense of tart… — P.G. (4/1/2009)

Online Exclusive

Price $38

Always a joy to drink, the latest vintage of DDO’s Arthur combines richness and elegance in a seamless and fascinating whole. Cucumber and melon, apple and pear fruit is the base, which expands into wet stone and mineral, then butter cookie.

Cellar Selection

Price $45

Elegance is the keyword for all the wines of DDO, with the added bonus of structure that almost begs for cellaring. This lovely Pinot Noir effortlessly captures the essence of the grape without any heavy-handed oak, alcohol or over-ripeness. Truly Burgundian, a moderate 14% alcohol, it offers seamless integration of berry and plum fruit, natural acids and lightly… — P.G. (4/1/2009)

Online Exclusive

Price $45

Once again, the Burgundian touch of Veronique Drouhin has crafted a wine of surpassing elegance and immaculate structure. This is the antithesis of a jammy, California style yet it retains much of the vibrancy of New World fruit rather than the suppressed rusticity of Burgundy. Delicate cherry and tart plum fruit is sculpted into a wine with nuanced details of cola… — P.G. (3/1/2011)

Domaine Drouhin Oregon 2007 Laurène Pinot Noir (Dundee Hills)

Cellar Selection
Online Exclusive

Price $65

The Laurène–Drouhin Family Estate Reserve brings a bit more earthiness to the table than the regular DDO bottling. In the mouth, the fruit—a delicate jumble of raspberry, pomegranate, cranberry and sour cherry—mingles with streaks of caramel, herb and leaf. A wine that will reward both cellaring (at least a decade) and studying. — P.G. (3/1/2011)
