Beaux Frères Star Mooring Chehalem Mountains Pinot Noir 2019

95 Points Wine Spectator                                           Limited new release from Beaux-Freres. From a young vineyard developed by Mike Etzel in 2014. A dramatic site with only two inches of top soils over extremely rocky, fractured basalt. Whilst still young, this vineyard is already producing wines of real character, tension and length on the palate.\ The Beaux Freres vineyards are located on an 86-acre farm in Yamhill County's Willamette Valley. Majestic Douglas fir trees comprise just under 50 acres of the farm, with the homestead and barns occupying another six acres. The vineyard is situated on 30 acres of steep contiguous hillsides that enjoy an exceptional south/southwest exposure. The property, purchased in 1987 by Michael Etzel and the noted wine critic Robert M. Parker, Jr., was named Beaux Freres (the brothers-in-law). A few years later Robert Roy, a Pinot Noir and red burgundy enthusiast from Quebec, became the third member of the Beaux Freres partnership. A limited opportunity to try some of Oregon's highest rated Pinots!
