Ponzi Vineyards Laurelwood Pinot Noir 2023
Laurelwood District
June 17, 2026 - As Wine Spectator once wrote, “All Oregon Pinot Noirs are measured against the Ponzi yardstick.” For over 50 years, the Ponzi family has farmed 140 acres of certified sustainable vineyards on Laurelwood soils. This wine is the result of a decade's long effort by sisters Maria and Luisa and neighboring growers to establish the Laurelwood District, Oregon’s first soil-based AVA. The area’s volcanic basalts, layered with windblown loess, shape the vines' evolution. Bright red fruit gives way to dark berry and brambly spice as the vines mature.
James Suckling - March 11, 2025 "Deep, dark fruit and moody, spicy, savory accents on a bold, fine-grained tannic texture backed by great acidity. It is structured, concentrated, layered and intense. It becomes broader and richer…

Wine Spectator - October 13, 2025 "Vibrant and fresh, with lively flavors of pomegranate and cherry accented with green tea tones that speed toward snappy tannins."

William Fèvre Chablis Domaine 2023
Chablis
June 16, 2026 - William Fèvre Chablis Domaine is a benchmark expression of the region, crafted entirely from estate-grown fruit rooted in classic Kimmeridgian subsoil. With 38 hectares of vines—many bordering Premier Cru sites—this wine reflects the purity and precision of its terroir. Fermented with indigenous yeasts and aged primarily in stainless steel (with just a touch of older oak), it balances vibrant citrus and white-fleshed fruit with the appellation’s hallmark minerality. Fresh, supple, and crystalline, it pairs effortlessly with oysters, sushi, and simply prepared seafood.
James Suckling - May 20, 2026 "Good depth of minerality goes a bit deeper and vertically here with green apples, lime, chalk and seashells. Nicely round, with subtle salinity on the medium-bodied palate before a sleek,…
Wine Advocate - January 29, 2026 "Sourced from a mosaic of exposures and elevations and incorporating old vines planted between 1969 and 1972, the 2023 Chablis Village offers aromas of pear, white flowers and freshly baked…
