November 2009

Greetings from Ross Andrew Winery!


With all the 2009 wines resting quietly in barrel (or stainless steel tank in the case of the white wines), we're ready to kick our feet up, enjoy the holidays and drink some wine!

This past year was probably our busiest one to date with the building out of our new tasting room and launching our new website.  We've also welcomed two great new additons to the team:  Erin Mitchell, who has taken charge of our Tasting Room operations and our fuzziest staffer, Galena,  our 6 month old Bernese Mountain Dog. 

That said, we have some incredible wines for you this season.  The first wine we're welcoming back is our Boushey Vineyard Syrah.  This time it's from the 2007 vintage and it has an incredible silkiness and finess which seems to be one of the many wonderful characterists of this year as a whole.  Aromatically there is are hints of black pepper, blueberry and bacon. 

We're also releasing our newest red blend, the 2006 Syrah ~ Cabernet Sauvignon.  This is the perfect daily drinker: it has a heart of Cabernet Sauvignon with an incredible silky texture that comes from the great Boushey Vineyard Syrah.    This is always one of the first wines to sell out at the winery.

On the White wine front, we are thrilled to showcase the 2008 Meadow and 2008 Celilo Vineyard Pinot Gris.  This year's Meadow, like the 2007 is Pinot Blanc dominant so the flavors and palate are focused, light and refreshing.  The aromatic profile is equally as enticing:  white flowers, Meyer lemon and a hint of mineral.  It will again make the perfect aperitif wine or acompany almost all of your lighter holiday dishes. 

Our 2008 Celilo Vineyard Pinot Gris has those beautiful signature aromatics of Bosc and Asian pear, ginger and fresh apricots.  The palate is vibrant, crisp and refreshing.  Sadly, we only have 80 cases of this wine, so we're limiting it to 3 bottles a person. 


We look forward to seeing you and your friends on November 21st or 22nd from Noon to 5 at our new tasting room.

Regards,

The Team at Ross Andrew Winery
