Lavinea Eola

Lavinea Eola Chardonnay is an elegant, beautifully focused expression of Oregon Chardonnay, balancing richness with the freshness of its cool-climate origins. Aromas of tart green apple mingle with lemon-custard and hints of wet-rock minerality. Round but concentrated on the palate, its sweet-sour citrus and summer stone fruit flavors layer with a flinty element, resulting in a wine with plenty of energy and freshness. This wine clings to the palate with superb minerality and mouthwatering acidity that balances the richness of the vintage and evolves to a long finish.

Avid

AVID Pinot Noir is bright, silky, and inviting, with the kind of effortless character that makes Pinot Noir so easy to enjoy. Light on its feet yet full of flavor, the wine combines vibrant red fruit with smooth tannins and refreshing acidity. Notes of fresh and delicate raspberries, ripe red cherries, and luscious black plums are met by hints of toast from the oak aging. Delicate savory notes add complexity without taking away from its fresh, approachable personality, leading to a soft and lingering finish.
