HAMACHER WINES
Eric Hamacher began Hamacher Wines in 1995 with an uncompromising commitment to quality. In less than a decade, he became one of the most respected and sought after producers in Oregon. He has established a reputation for being a masterful blender of expressive and balanced Pinot Noir and produces some of the most elegant Chardonnay in the United States. His wines are made with great care and passion, striving for depth of character, balance and consistency with every vintage. While his production is small, the wines are highly acclaimed and featured in fine restaurants and private cellars around the world.

Sommelier Larry Stone will be releasing his first Willamette Valley wines in 2015 from the 2013 vintage under the “Lingua Franca” label. The name means “honest tongue.” The first vintage of Lingua Franca wines will be produced at Coehlo Winery using purchased grapes, with estate grown bottlings following in 2016. Stone previously managed Evening Land Vineyards in Oregon after leaving the restaurant business in 2006.

2011 Panther CreekLazy River Pinot Noir
“Black plums collide with French vanilla and holiday baking spices, producing an entrance that lightly dances into an explosion of juicy deep purple fruit on the mid-palate. Massive, complex and cellar-worthy, the 2011 Lazy River deserves decanting if approached in its youth.”

PONZI
Founded in 1970 in Oregon’s lush Willamette Valley, Ponzi Vineyards is internationally acclaimed for producing some of the world’s finest Pinot Noir, Pinot Gris, Pinot Blanc, Chardonnay and White Riesling, as well as Arneis and Dolcetto, two rare Italian varietals.

“This compelling nose explodes with intriguing aromas of black cherry, dark chocolate, spiced rhubarb, cigar box and dried Ancho pepper” -Winemaker Luisa Ponzi
