SUMMARY:Oregon... and Neighbors
DESCRIPTION:On Friday evening\, June 14th at 7:00 p.m. at the   Hilton Harrisburg\, we will be experiencing a special event featuring nine carefully selected wines from Oregon\, Northern California and Washington. \nWe will be pouring four white wines and five red wines representing some of the best wine appellations in the country. Our whites are from the Willamette Valley in Oregon\, the Russian River Valley in Northern California and the Columbia Valley in Washington. \nOur reds will include a comparison of Pinot Noirs from different appellations in the Willamette Valley.  We will also compare Cabernet Sauvignons from Napa Valley\, California and Walla Walla Valley in Washington. \nOur fifth red will be a full-body blend from Northern California that includes six different varietals\, some of which\, are rare.  In addition\, we will accompany these magnificent wines with five select premium cheeses that make excellent pairings! \nWine List – WHITES \nLange Estate – Classique Pinot Gris 2022 Willamette Valley AVA\, Oregon. 100% Pinot Gris. Wine Enthusiast 91 Points. \nThis classic Pinot Gris style results in a light\, crisp\, approachable wine true to varietal character with beautifully balanced acidity. This wine shows citrus\, honeydew melon\, and orange blossom on the nose while the palate displays notes of fresh\, green apple\, ripe pears\, Meyer lemon and lime   zest. – Winemaker’s Notes. \nCheese Pairing: Young Gouda. \n  \nStags Leap – Sauvignon Blanc 2022 – Napa Valley AVA\, California. 100% Sauvignon Blanc. James Suckling 92 Points. \n The 2022 Napa Valley Sauvignon Blanc is bright\, crisp\, and refreshing with aromatic notes of white peach\, lemon verbena\, lime peel\, and white elderflower. More subtle notes of brioche toast and biscuit crumb support the lively fruit (a nod to the subtle oak influence) alongside a delicate mineral flintiness. The palate is rich\, creamy\, \nand round with notes of Meyer lemon\, green apple\, lime pith\, cassis bud\, and lychee. There is a zippy\, racy acidity throughout\, creating a mouthwatering texture and lively backbone that carries all the way through to the long\, lip-smackingly crisp finish. – Winemaker’s Notes. \nCheese Pairing: Goat Cheese. \n  \nDutton Ranch – The Calling 2021 – Russian River Valley AVA\, Sonoma\, California. 100% Chardonnay. James Suckling 91 Points\, Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate 90 Points. \n Intensely aromatic with notes of lemon curd\, honeysuckle and white rose petals. Crisp acidity is balanced with subtle French oak on the palate. Flavors of ripe melon\, lemon and baked brioche combine for a long\, elegant finish. – Winemaker”s Notes. \nCheese Pairing: Havarti. \n  \nPortlandia – Pinot Gris 2021 – Columbia Valley AVA\, Washington (70%)\, Willamette Valley AVA\, Oregon (30%). 96% Pinot Gris\, 3% Riesling\, 1% Viognier. Wine Enthusiast 91 Points. Vivino Top 25 Oregon Pinot Gris of 2021. \nWell balanced citrus aromas and flavors\, crisp and versatile. Aromas of pear\, lemon and hints of lite candied ginger on the nose. Mostly lemon tempered by notes of lime zest and melon on the palate. A delightful Pinot Gris. – Johan Lubbe. \nCheese Pairing: Goat Cheese. \n  \nWine List – REDS \n  \nKen Wright Cellars – Appellation Series 2021 – Eola-Amity Hills AVA\, Oregon. 100% Pinot Noir. Wine Enthusiast 95 Points\, Wine Spectator 93.  \nThis is a Goldilocks special\, because the fruit\, alcohol\, acidity and tannins are just right. Rainier cherry and lavender aromas are joined by smaller notes of leather and a new cedar chest drawer. The wine’s cassis\, orange pith and smoky Lapsang souchong tea flavors float on a soft\, smooth texture. — Michael Alberty\, Wine Enthusiast. \nCheese Pairing: Goat Cheese. \n  \nDomaine Drouhin Oregon – Dundee Hills Pinot Noir 2018 – Dundee Hills AVA\, Oregon. 100% Pinot Noir. Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate 94+ Points\, Wine Enthusiast 94 Points.  \n Our 2018 Dundee Hills is complex and structured\, a beautiful combination of flavor\, intensity\, and backbone. Subtle notes of rose petal\, raspberry and dark cherries lead into layered flavors of sour cherries\, cranberry\, black tea\, and plum. There is an extraordinary balance between the fine tannins and energizing lift of vibrant red fruit and acidity. This is a wine that will be exciting to follow as it passes the 5\, 10\, and 15-year marks. – Winemaker’s Notes. \nCheese Pairing: Gruyere. \n  \nGirard Winery – Cabernet Sauvignon 2021 – Napa Valley AVA\, California. 86% Cabernet Sauvignon\, 5% Petit Verdot\, 5% Malbec\, 2% Cabernet Franc\, 2% Merlot. Wine Enthusiast 93 Points.  \n Well-built and deep in flavor\, this full-bodied wine is a great value for a Napa Cab. It shows a calm strength and emerging complexity. The wine blankets deep\, dark violet and blackcurrant flavors in fine-grained tannins. — Jim Gordon\, Wine Enthusiast. \nCheese Pairing: Piave. \n  \nSeven Hills Winery – Cabernet Sauvignon 2019 – Walla Walla Valley AVA\, Washington. 100% Cabernet Sauvignon. Wine Enthusiast 92 Points\, James Suckling 92 Points.  \n This dark crimson gem is a fantastic value. Aromas of black cherries\, violets\, dark chocolate and bone broth are worth the bottle price all by themselves. Raspberry\, vanillin and cedar flavors are backed by grippy tannins and brisk acidity.  — Michael Alberty\, Wine Enthusiast. \nCheese Pairing: Piave. \n  \nThree Wine Company – Field Blend 2018 – Contra Costa County\, California. \n39% Carignan\, 26% Matero\, 17% Zinfandel\, 11% Petit Sirah\, 5% Alicante Bouschet\, 2% Black Malvoisie. \nThe “field blend” contingent of this wine adds structure\, color\, cherry\, and black fruit flavors. There is a deep concentration of ripe black cherries and spice with a minerality (earthy berry) sneaking through. The mouth-feel is rich and balanced with a lingering peppery finish. – Winemaker’s Notes. \nThis is a special PWS wine event that features wines from America’s Pacific Northwest; arguably the greatest wine region in the country. You will not want to miss this exceptional tasting. Join us for an evening enjoying some great wines with excellent premium cheese pairing selections. \n  \nPlease inform us early of any food sensitivities via email to the Treasurer. \nReservation deadline is Tuesday\, June 11th. \n    Member —$95 \n    Patron —$90  \n    Nonmember —$115 \n
