"Domaine Drouhin Oregon 2014 Dundee Hills Pinot Noir (Dundee Hills). - 92 Points
Rich and textural, this gloriously mixes raspberries, cherries, baking spices, cola, cocoa and coconut components, all woven together seamlessly. It's forward and juicy, yet built for medium-term aging. Drink now through 2026.

Drouhin Oregon RoseRock 2014 Chardonnay (Eola-Amity Hills). - 90 Points
The first offering from Domaine Drouhin Oregon's newly-minted vineyard, RoseRock. It's a young, fresh, fruity wine, loaded with flavors of apple, pineapple and light tropical fruits. There's a light pat of butter in the finish. Drink over the next couple of years while the freshness is at its best.

Drouhin Oregon RoseRock 2014 Pinot Noir (Eola-Amity Hills). - 88 Points
A new effort from DDO, this drops Domaine Drouhin from the name, and puts the vineyard name front and center. It's young and well-crafted, with strawberry and cherry fruit. The potential is evident for an impressive site once the vines get some age under them".
