Domaine Roy & Fils Willamette Valley Chardonnay 2024

Willamette Valley

April 30, 2026 - Willamette Valley Chardonnay is a skillful blend of the Iron Filbert Vineyard in Dundee Hills and the Quartz Acorn Vineyard in Yamhill-Carlton, planted with Clones 76 and 95.

Domaine Roy & Fils Willamette Valley Pinot Noir 2024

Willamette Valley

April 30, 2026 - The calling card of Domaine Roy & Fils, the Willamette Valley Pinot Noir is the only Pinot from the winery that comes from both estate vineyards–Iron Filbert in Dundee Hills and Quartz Acron in Yamhill-Carlton. The wine sees 15 days of maceration on the skins followed by 10 months of lees aging in barriques, of which only 10% are new oak. The wine expresses the signature style of Domaine Roy & Fils, favoring elegance over power: floral notes mix with lifted red fruit on the nose, followed by a bright, sappy Bing cherry character on the palate.

Domaine Chanson Bourgogne Chardonnay 2022

Bourgogne

April 27, 2026 - A great introduction to Domaine Chanson, this Bourgogne Chardonnay comes from vineyards in Auxerrois, Côte Chalonnaise, and Mâconnais, with limestone and clay soils. It spends 14 months aging, allowing it to develop its full expression. Pale gold in color, it offers intense aromas of citrus fruit, green almond, and an underlying minerality. On the palate, it is well-balanced, with pure fruit flavors and a racy acidity. The structure is clean and dynamic, and the finish is refreshingly crisp. Perfect with charcuterie, pâté, and goat cheese.

Sandrone Dolcetto d’Alba 2024

Dolcetto d'Alba

April 27, 2026 - Sandrone’s Dolcetto d’Alba is a complex example of the variety. Dolcetto thrives in the limestone-rich hillsides, where the mesoclimates impart both structure and vibrant fruit. True to Sandrone’s philosophy, the Dolcetto sees no time in wood, preserving its vivid aromatics and purity of fruit.
