Articles mentioning wines produced from this vineyardWineries sourcing from this vineyardReviewed wines produced from this vineyard2015 The Four Graces Willamette Valley Oregon Pinot Noir 13.8% alc., pH 3.60, 14,140 cases, $32. Sourced from The Foley Family Estate in the Dundee Hills and Doe Ridge Estate in the Yamhill-Carlton AVA. Aged 9 months in French oak barrels, 15% new. · Moderately dark garnet color in the glass. Shy, but pleasant aromas of black cherry, baking spice and biscuit. Forward drinking mid weight wine with plenty of dark cherry, blueberry and pomegranate fruit flavors to satisfy. Satiny texture with modest tannins that stick out on the finish. A little more oak than I prefer is apparent. Score: 88. Reviewed November 12, 2017 WINERY » ARTICLE »
2015 The Four Graces Reserve Dundee Hills Oregon Pinot Noir 14.3% alc., pH 3.60, 1,279 cases, $75. Sourced from Foley Family Estate Vineyard. A specific row and block selection. Aged 9 months in French oak barrels, 25% new. · Moderate garnet color in the glass. Shy aromas of tobacco, conifer, cherry and strawberry. Discreetly concentrated flavors of earth-kissed cherry and blackberry with a thread of supportive oak. Silky tannins, bright acidity and a modest finish that still shows some unresolved tannins. Needs more time in the cellar for full aromatic and flavor expression. Score: 90. Reviewed November 12, 2017 WINERY » ARTICLE »
