LWC - Other Tasty Pinots

LORING WINE COMPANY
Tasty Pinots

As much as I like my own wines, I just can't drink them all the time. I'm sure that the folks at DRC feel the same way - they can't drink my wines everyday either ;) Here's a list of some of the people I'm buying wine from these days. I think you should consider giving them a shot too! Please note that if a winery doesn't get listed, it doesn't mean that I don't like their wine. In some cases, it's just that I'm not on the mailing list, and therefore not "buying" the wine. As much as I love Kistler, Rochioli, William-Selyem, Marcassin, Martinelli - I'm not on any of those lists.

Here are some great Oregon Pinot producers... in alphabetical order:

Beaux Freres Bergstrom J.K. Carriere Maysara
Owen Roe Panther Creek Penner-Ash Raptor Ridge
Scott Paul Shea Sineann St. Innocent

Although they don't produce Pinot... I think everyone should try some of the AWESOME Cal-Italian wines from Palmina. Steve and Chrystal are doing an amazing job with those varietals - far and away the best in California. You really owe it to yourself to try their wines.
