Release Party – D122!

On Saturday March 13th, 2010, from noon – 5 p.m., join us for the release of a new and very special addition to the Scott Paul Pinot Noir portfolio. Our first official release from Oregon’s outstanding 2008 vintage is a wine we have christened D122.

D122 is the name of the tiny two-lane road that winds through the great Grand Cru vineyards in Burgundy’s Côte de Nuits, passing through the vineyards of the famous villages of Chambolle-Musigny, Morey-St. Denis & Gevrey-Chambertin.

The Scott Paul 2008 D122 is a selection of just six barrels from the Ribbon Ridge Vineyard, a pristine 9-acre site planted to a mixture of Pommard & Dijon clones in 2001. We felt that Ribbon Ridge produced something really special in 2008, and that it deserved to stand on its own. It has always been our philosophy to blend from our different vineyards – unless something from a single vineyard stands out as complete and unique enough to be bottled separately. And thus, the 2008 D122 – 132 cases of rich, blackberry-scented, velvety, pure Scott Paul Pinot Noir.

The 2008 D122 is priced at $35 per bottle, and will be available only direct from the winery – either from our tasting room, via our website, or by phone order. A limited number of Magnums of the D122 will also be available.

Don’t forget, our case discount is now 20%! Also, there is still space available in the Burgundy Seminar that Scott will teach that night.
