“Planted in 1982, Montinore Estate is a 200-acre Demeter Certified Biodynamic® and CCOF Certified Organic estate that lies at the northern end of the Willamette Valley appellation and along the east-facing slope of the Coastal Range foothills in Oregon. In addition to the certifications, we use dry farming and sustainable growing practices. Our goal with Montinore Estate has always been to create complex wines that reflect the soil and overall place from which they come. This is an ideal site for the nine grape varieties we grow here: Pinot Noir, Pinot Gris, Riesling, Gewürztraminer, Müller-Thurgau, Lagrein, Teroldego, Muscat and Sauvignon Blanc.”
1st Course
Spice-Crusted Tuna with Thai Snow Pea Salad

2nd Course
Pasta with Prosciutto and Peas
Wine-Montinore Estate Pinot Rose, Willamette Valley
“Immediately hit with a rush of strawberry limeade: both fruity and sharp on the palate. That then transformed to something of a green stemmy-ness on the finish.”
Entrée
