This winery was one of the host for Pinot Camp that I went to in June. It is located next to the aerospace museum that houses the Spruce Goose which explains the Spruce Goose on the label of some of the wines. The spruce goose being the plane the government contracted to howard hughes to build made out of wood.. pine if I remember..Pine doesnt rhyme well though.
Most of these wines are missing something, and I can not put my finger on it. Just not quite the standard that most Willamette wines have.
Riesling 2006 pink grapefruity, a little dull on the palate.
Chardonnay 2006 rustic..heavy and needs food..to cover the taste
Rose but a chardonnay red wine blend...funky color and not awful but something off in the palate
Pinot Gris 2006 some mineral notes.. rustic and harsh.
Pinot Noir dried fruits, tasted with chocolate which helped cover the wine a little...
Pinot Noir Commemorative dark fruits, nice body but for the money leaves a little to be desired.
