Description
Luminous Hills Vineyard sits in the southwestern portion of the Yamhill-Carlton District within the larger Willamette Valley appellation, and is the home vineyard of Seven of Hearts winemaker Byron Dooley.
3 wines are produced here, with this estate Pinot Noir being a blend of several vineyard sites. A wonderful, deep red which is 25% whole cluster fermented and then barrel aged for sixteen months in a mixture of French oak from different cooperages. Lively and spicey with dark berry scents on the nose. Smooth and appealingly sweet, offering plump raspberry and floral pastille flavors that intensify on the mid-palate. Although structured, this wonderful Pinot is forward and nicely balanced, displaying clarity and rounded tannins on the finish.

2020 Chateau Saransot Dupre, Cru Bourgeois Superieurlistrac
Bordeaux Blend
Chateau Saransot-Dupre is a favourably sited 17 hectares property that lies between Fourcas Dupré and Fourcas Hosten in Listrac. Due to Listrac’s cooler temperatures, Merlot and Cabernet Franc are favoured over Cabernet Sauvignon to form the majority of the blend, helping them achieve optimum ripeness. Much like Chateau Fourcas Hosten, the wines have improved year on year since 2010 and the property were put on the radar thanks to a certain Robert Parker hailing the 2010 vintage as 'classed growth quality'. High praise indeed!
