2024 Stafford Hill Pinot Noir, Willamette Valley, Oregon – Made in the style of traditional Burgundy, gentle swirling results in aromas of fresh black cherry, blackberry, and hints of cinnamon. The midpalate shows nice depth of black cherry/berry fruit with great focus and gentle savory notes on the smooth, lingering finish. $25.00

2025 Holloran Pinot Noir Rosé, Willamette Valley, Oregon – This pretty rosé pours a light salmon color and offers fresh notes of blood orange, strawberries, and melon. Perfect for patio dining or paired with soft, flavorful cheese. $20.00

2022 Stafford Hill Tempranillo, Eola-Amity Hills, Willamette Valley, Oregon – Aromas of black cherry, cinnamon, and vanilla fill your nose. On the palate, it’s lush with boisterous dark berry fruit that fills your mouth with a nice vanilla nuance, with sneaky tannins that build in your mouth on the finish. Perfect with grilled/braised meats. $20.00
