Three Elk Cove wines made Wine & Spirits Magazine’s list of the Year’s Best U.S. Pinot Noirs.

San Francisco based Wine and Spirits Magazine tasted more than 1,140 American Pinot Noirs in 2015. Of those, only 149 received a score high enough to make their Year’s Best U.S. Pinot Noirs so this is a huge honor. Included on the list are:

92 Points: Elk Cove 2013 Five Mountain Pinot Noir
91 Points: Elk Cove 2013 Willamette Valley Pinot Noir
90 Points: Elk Cove 2013 Clay Court Pinot Noir

We are proud of our winemakers for creating wines that impress in a year that many considered a more difficult vintage for Oregon. This list will post in their April 2016 issue.
