• Owen Roe Casablanca Vineyard Pinot Gris 2001
  ---YES! INCREDIBLE WINE! JY
  David is so excited about this wine. The industry buzz is that this is the best Pinot Gris ever made in Oregon- David says its his favorite white wine he ever made. It's incerdibly rich, almost oily in texture. It tastes so rich, you think it must have a lot of sugar, but it's only .6%- just at the edge of where sugar is detectable! It finishes with big acidity, making it excellent for food. The Cassablacna Vineyard has a distinct terroir, and David says it really comes through in this wine, with distinct pear and Pineapple notes in the fruit flavors. Don't miss this gem! $26.99 available now.
  
  
• Sineann Dry Gewurztraminer Celilo Vineyard 2001 --- This was some of the best tasting fruit David has seen. He says they were stuffing their faces with the fruit, eating it like crazy, because it tasted so incredibly good! The wine has the classic lychee and floral characteristics of Gewurztraminer, beautiful aromatics and a dry finish. It was 100% barrel fermented. $19.99 available now.
  
  
• O'Reilly Pinot Gris 2001 --- This was going to be blended into the Owen Roe Pinot Gris, but the Casablanca fruit turned out so spectacular that David decided to bottle this separately and at a great price. It's 25% Casablanca fruit and 75% St Columban Vineyard, everything you'd want in a gris- nice nose, pleasant gris character fruit, and a clean finish that goes well with food. $12.00 available now.
  
  
• Sineann Zinfandel Pine Vineyard 2000 --- This block of 14 year old vines is contiguous with the 100 year old "Old Vine" vineyard. This is a huge wine and is for real monster sized wine lovers. It is dark, with plummy, deep flavors and texture. An over the top David O'Reilly special! $29.99 available now.
  
  
• Sineann Baby Poux Cab 2000 --- Yes, finally, its here, but not much of it. THe wine has great structure, good blackberry, Bordeaux -like character, with cassis, cedar, and coffe, chocolate in the flavors. It has good weight and silky well balanced tannins. $29.99 available now but VERY VERY limited.
  
  
• Owen Roe Dubrul Cabernet Sauvignon 2000 --- Only 98 cases made and he thinks its better than last year's. Cropped to less than 2 tons per acre, over 14% alcohol, this is a massive wine. $60.00 but only available to Big Red Wine Club members as one of their April selections.
