2004 | Domaine Drouhin Oregon | Louise Drouhin Pinot Noir

The fruit is complex and penetrating, focused and long, layered throughout a generous and extended finish. Cherries and chocolate linger on the palate, resonating long after the wine has been swallowed.

Producer Information

Domaine Drouhin Oregon is one of Oregon's premier wine producers located in Willamette Valley's Dundee Hills AVA. The estate is owned by Burgundian producer Maison Joseph Drouhin and is operated by Véronique and Philippe Drouhin. The winery released its first vintage in 1988 and is known for its top quality Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. Robert Drouhin recognized Oregon's winemaking potential after a visit to the region in 1961, and eventually acquired an unplanted, 91-hectare (225-acre) piece of land in 1987. Now, the Dundee Hills property has 50 hectares (124 acres) of hillside vineyard, planted mostly to Pinot Noir with about 10 percent planted to Chardonnay. Vinification at Domaine Drouhin has been adapted from the family's winemaking techniques at their Burgundian estate. Grapes are handpicked and handsorted at the four-level, gravity-flow winery; then cold-soaked before a long, natural fermentation. Pinot Noir is aged in both new and neutral French oak barrels for up to two years, and matured for a further six to eight months in bottle before release. Domaine Drouhin Oregon produces numerous labels including a rosé and Chardonnay and Pinot Noir cuvées from barrels selected by Véronique. The estate's top cuvée and flagship wine, Cuvée Laurère, is blended from the best Pinot Noir barrels from estate-grown fruit.
