Tastings & Events
Special Wednesday Tasting with Bill Holloran!
We're excited to welcome the owner of one of our very favorite Willamette Valley wineries to the store this week. Come by this Wednesday (tomorrow!) from 5 to 7 pm and meet Bill Holloran of Holloran Wines.
Bill will pour two delicious Oregon whites, his 2006 Willamette Valley Pinot Noir, and the Wine Advocate 90 point single-vineyard Le Pavillon Pinot Noir 2007. He'll also give us an update on the fantastic 2008s on the way, including the delicious and stunning value Stafford Hill Pinot Noir 2008 that arrives in two weeks!
We've brought you Bill Holloran's handcrafted Willamette Valley wines since his second vintage in 2000, and many of you already know the story: technology executive moves to Oregon to raise his family, starts to dabble in wine, hires one of the best young winemakers in Oregon (Jay Somers), buys a famous vineyard (Le Pavillon), and starts turning out classic Willamette Valley wines at silly low prices.
But if you haven't met Bill before, you don't really understand the passion and dedication behind these delicious wines. Come join us this Wednesday from 5-7 pm, get to know Bill a bit, and sample four of his most delicious wines. The tasting is free but the experience will be priceless!
