Wine Description

Roserock Pinot Noir is a cuvée selection from the estate’s 35 blocks, which are handpicked, sorted and individually fermented. While Pinot Noirs from the Eola-Amity Hills are typically known for their structure and power, Véronique Drouhin emphasizes Roserock’s elegant and refined qualities, making for a delicious and age worthy cuvée.

  1. Kristine Thomas

    Medium ruby in color. Full, forward & fragrant nose of ripe fruit aromas of cherries, strawberries & blueberries with overtones of spices & floral notes, earthy, minerals & a slight touch of vanilla/oak in the background. Medium bodied with a good concentration of well balanced & smooth textured, ripe fruit flavors of cherries, strawberries & blueberries with spices, minerals & a hint of vanilla. Lingering finish. Drinks quite well at present although it does have the ripe fruit & firm structure for further development with additional aging.

  2. Katherine Wilson

    Big nose here, really loaded with fruit and oak. Medium-full bodied and quite sweet. This is loaded with sweet red fruits, licorice and spice. There’s a LOT of oak and vanilla here. I’m not loving it, but most definitely will! 91Tatiana: 94

  3. Victor Elliott

    My wife loved it, I am ambivalent, great bouquet, good fruit but it is disjointed from the tannins which are in the finish, sort of agree with other comments about being fruit forward, I think the wine lacks acid so we have fruit then tannin, it might be me as I am noticing this lately in a few wines, drank with salmon cakes, roasted potatoes and Brussels sprouts, 14.1% abv like all Domaine Drouhin wines- coincidence, Dominique? Might drink again need to see how the new DDO pn for 2021 tastes- Origine 34. Much cheaper locally than from the winery with a discount, dumping?

  4. Rocco Stuart

    Medium bodied. I feel this wine has a definite “Burgundy” style to it…..but struggle to articulate this feeling with more specifics. I also sense that it will improve with time. So, will not rush to drink my other bottles.

  5. Mei Riley

    Excellent

  6. Geraldine Wendt

    Beautiful wine. Fresh and tart with grippy and drying tannins. Almost Burgundian in style. Excellent stuff that made me buy more.

  7. Caryn Gomez

    Lighter

  8. Hazel Homa

    definitely a step above the typical Oregon Pinot.

  9. Dean Barrera

    Bouquet is a symphony of scents – if it were bottled it would attract the birds and the bees and the Pinotphiliacs. Entry is soft, round, sweet fruit delicately balanced, mild fruit acid, shades of wood. A pure, modest Pinot with natural beauty, flirting with your taste, a touch too pretty, too sweet one may ask, innocent of ambitions of a long life, no cold dark cellars for me.

  10. Dominque Crowder

    A light style of pinot, reminds me a lot of a Volnay. The nose is very expressive – red fruit (perhaps cranberry?), floral, a little spicy. Light on the palate, not quite getting to the lightness of saying delicate. A little bit towards the ripe end of the spectrum. Delightful.

  11. Gladys Madison

    Very pleasant with bright fruit on day one but wow what a wine on day 2. Picks up some weight on day 2 and starts to show its complexity. A great wine and a screaming value. Wow.

  12. Lupe Mayfield

    Not great I would not buy again. A little too fruity and funky sort of the thing I like least about Oregon PinotBasically too fruit forward and lacks that structural elegance. Might be to oakeyA chance it will get better with age I guess but I just really don’t feel like the tannins are there, the oak is more vanilla

  13. Christian Buggs

    Medium purple / bright ruby. Something faintly sharp and earthy on nose. Black raspberry, fairly light on the palate. Getting more put together after a couple hours, certainly suggestive of needing a decant or some more time.

  14. WS

    Graceful and precise, with dynamic cherry and red plum flavors highlighted by fresh violet and brown spices, which glide on the long, sleek finish toward refined tannins. Drink now through 2032.

  15. JS

    Bright and vibrant with savory notes, raspberries and dried wild strawberries, hints of chocolate orange and dried sage. So crunchy and fleshy on the palate with a medium body and round, creamy texture. Attractive, berry-soaked mid-palate with a toned and fresh finish. Drink or hold.

Pinot Noir grapes exhibit a distinct elegance. Their thin skins and tightly clustered berries make them susceptible to disease and challenging to cultivate. However, the rewards of this persnickety grape are extraordinary. Pinot Noir wines possess a remarkable flavor profile, often described as silky, with vibrant acidity, delicate tannins, and an array of aromas. Expect to encounter red fruit notes like cherry and raspberry, accompanied by earthy undertones, floral hints, and sometimes a touch of spice. Renowned regions such as Burgundy in France, the Willamette Valley in Oregon, and California's Sonoma County have become synonymous with exceptional Pinot Noir production. Each region brings its own terroir and climate, contributing to the wine's character. Burgundy, for instance,... Read More
 

Eola-Amity Hills, an American Viticultural Area (AVA) situated at the heart of Oregon's Willamette Valley, boasts a history of viticulture rooted in the American wine renaissance of the 1960s and 1970s. Nestled just northwest of Salem, this AVA spans approximately 15 miles from north to south between the towns of Amity and Eola.

One of the defining characteristics of Eola-Amity Hills is its unique terroir, shaped by ancient geological processes. This region is marked by hills formed through tectonic shifts and ancient lava flows. The key to its viticultural success lies... Read More
