Harper Voit! You Heard it Here!

Share This:
Spring is here, and we're closing in on the first full year in our new winery. May brings us to 3 of our 6 open house days of the year. The 2012 Pinots are resting in barrel, giving us a chance to reflect on what has turned out to be one of the best vintages in memory. We're off to a great and early start to the 2013 growing season, and we welcome you to come and taste with us on these upcoming special event weekends.
The New Winery
We've settled into the new winery now and are enjoying the benefits of having our own space. Most of Drew's 2012 custom winemaking clients will be pouring their wines at the open houses and a few new exciting projects have come on board for 2013. In addition, our good friends from WildAire, Leah Jorgensen Cellars, and Eisold-Smith will be sharing their range of hand-crafted, small production wines.
2010 Last Call
We're down to about 8 cases of the 2010 Strandline Pinot Noir and about 2 cases of the 2010 Old School, so if you want some, give us a call or email and let us know. They might make it to the open houses, or not...If you're coming and want to pick some up, let us know and we can hold the last bit for you. We're down to the last 8 cases of the 2011 Pinot Blanc, too, with the 2012 still aging in barrel until July-August.
The New Releases
This month we will be releasing the 2011 Pinot Noirs. The Strandline cuvee, a blend of several vineyards, shows the bright intensity and balance of the 2011 vintage. We only made a little more than 200 cases of this. Also, the 2011 Old School Vineyard Pinot Noir will be released, which is extremely concentrated and dense, especially from this classic and cool vintage. 45 cases produced.
We're excited to announce a new release from Harper Voit in 2012, an Old Vines Riesling. We secured a small bit of the oldest Riesling vines in Yamhill County, planted at Maresh Vineyard in the Dundee Hills in 1970. Our 90 case production of this beautifully balanced Riesling are released this month. 
 
We're located just off Laughlin Road, on Ridge Road, between Willakenzie and Colene Clemens just across the narrow valley from Beaux Freres and Patricia Green.
We will be open from 10-4 on May 18th and again on Saturday-Sunday the 23rd and 24th. Pouring with us will be our good friends and winery-mates Wildaire Cellars and Eisold Smith Wines, as well as Drew's new winemaking clients, Toluca Lane, Eminent Domaine, and Rocky Point Cellars. Tasting fee $20 to taste all of these small production wines.

22070 NE Ridge Road Gaston, OR 97119

We hope to see you soon.
