In Collaboration With The Classic Wines Foundation, We Invite You To Explore and Compare Burgundian and West Coast Pinot Noir!

Pinot Noir’s home is the fabled Côte d’Or of Burgundy where the gently sloping Côtes coax complexity and elegance from the Pinot grape. Burgundy has had 1,000 years to reach its current heights. Here on the West Coast, we are still in our first century but achieving acclaim at an exponential pace year after year.

At this tasting, we will juxtapose wines from Burgundy, from Villages to Premier Cru level, with wines from Oregon and California. Led by Andrew Fortgang and Sergio Licea, owners of Flor Wines, this intimate tasting class will dive into the unique characteristics of this grape, where it is grown, and how it expresses itself in the new world and the old—six wines in total.

Tasting will be at Flor Wines on Wednesday, January 29th @ 6pm.

Enjoy light bites as you sip and learn. Bring your curiosity and questions for an evening of discovery, conversation and connection.

One of the importers we work the closest is Becky Wasserman Wines. In January a small amount of library selections arrived in Portland direct from Burgundy. The wines are in an exciting stage of their evolution, where the fruit, and oak when applicable, is mellowed to let terroir shine.

This seated tasting will be be relaxed and conversational. We will get to taste, ask questions, and discuss these stellar wines. The cost is $155 a person, here’s what we’ll be tasting:

- Bessin-Tremblay, Chablis Grand Gru Valmur 2017

- Benjamin Leroux, Meursault 1er cru Genevrières Dessus 2017 (from magnum)

- Comte Armand, Pommard 1er cru Cos des Epeneaux 2017

- Jacques-Frédéric Mugnier, Nuits-St.-Georges 1er cru Clos de la Maréchale 2013

- Bachelet, Gevrey-Chambertin Vielle Vignes 2017

- Burguet, Gevrey-Chambertin ‘Mes Favorites’ 2017

- Lignier-Michelot, Morey-Saint-Denis 1er Cru Faconnières 2016

Occhipinti Vino di Contrada 3-Pack available now! Limited to just 2,700 bottles of each single vineyard, this is the ultimate guide to seeing how well the amazing Frappato varietal transmits terroir. We have only 1 3 pack to sell, here’s a descriptor of each contrada. Link in story to purchase!

Pettineo (PT): This historic contrada, a term used to refer a small district of the countryside, is located beyond Serra San Bartolo ridge; historically it has always produced very elegant wines thanks to a deep layer of marine sand (50-60 cm), with little presence of limestone rocks on the surface.

Fossa di Lupo (FL): Another historical contrada and backbone of Occhilinti’s work since 2004. The soils are sandy with shades that go from red to chestnut brown and with a substantial presence of limestone rocks on the surface. After the 40 cm of sand, we arrive at a layer of solid, hard limestone.

Bombolieri (BB): Here we are situated on a point with high limestone content in the soil, facing the Serra San Bartolo. Here the lands can vary from colors of deep
chestnut to white, but the surface’s layer of sand is decisively lower: only 25 cm. Just below this thin layer you will find solid limestone.

If one of our packs is either too much, or not enough, we created a specially curated section where you can shop for November inspired bottles. These recommendations are perfect choices for your Thanksgiving dinner table. 10% Off Through Friday. Some of our current favorites are:

NV Camille et Laurent Schaller - Crémant de Bourgogne.
Impressions: While we are huge fans of low or no dosage sparklers, this time of year, a bit more roundness and opulence is what we’re craving. Lovely aromas of red apples, almond blossoms and a touch of brioche. An energetic acidity forms a lovely mousse that glides towards a dry, fruity and savory finish with a touch of salinity.

2022 Timothy Malone, Willamette Valley Chardonnay. Impressions: Don’t be a snob, it’s time to enjoy some oaked Chardonnay. This one scratches that buttery itch while maintaining a vibrant, balanced and interesting palate that doesn’t hide the wine’s minerality. A crowd pleaser for sure.

2022 Cardedu, ‘Praja’ Monica di Sardegna. Impressions: If you want to bring something familiar, yet different to the table, this wine is for you. Bursting with red fruits, herbal and floral notes, the palate is light-bodied, silky and juicy like a Gamay. We’re huge fans of this playful and interesting conversation starter.

This week’s lineup for you to enjoy BTG or sip a sample while you shop.

NV Champagne Jacquesson ‘Cuvee 747’ Extra Brut - Primarily 2019 base vintage for this naturally ripe & opulent bubbly, it’s a crowd pleaser. ⚡️

2023 Albamar Rías Baixas Albariño - Not sure which grabs our attention more: it’s fruity and stony aromatics, or its intensely mineral driven plate, what says you? 🤷‍♂️

2023 Thomas Labaille ‘L’Authentique’ Sancerre - The purity of Sauvignon Blanc grown on kimmeridgian limestone never gets old. 🏆

2022 J.C. Somers Vintner ‘Nouvelle Lune’ Dundee Hills Pinot Noir - Our shelves were already stacked with local Pinot so we didn’t “need” this wine, but we totally needed it and now you need to try this. 🍓🍓🍓

2017 Quinta Do Ataíde Duoro Tinto - Who needs a coat when you can warm up with this sunshine in a bottle, full-bodied, lush and earthy but balanced through and through. 💪
