Peter Eastlake, Food & Wine’s 2013 Sommelier of the Year and newest member of the team at Wine Awesomeness, has named Panther Creek Cellars to Harper Bazaar’s Best Wineries to Visit This Fall.  

This Pinot Gris is the winery’s sole white wine, and is a blend of grapes from three Willamette Valley vineyards: Olsen, Wildewood and Kraemer. Look for bright, clean aromas and flavors featuring apple and pear dancing with tropical fruit notes and a vein of earthy mineral.  

Please join Panther Creek in Seattle on September 11th, 2014 as we celebrate Oregon’s acclaimed Willamette Valley and share many of the award-winning wines our region has to offer.  

Arthur and Sherry Kalita planted their 22 acres of Pommard and Wadensvil clones in Willakenzie soils near famed Shea Vineyard, and their Pinot Noir has been featured by some cult producers for nearly a decade.  

This Pinot Noir from the acclaimed Ribbon Ridge AVA, on the shoulder of Chehalem Mountain, offers aromas of spicy berry, anise and earthy mineral leading to ripe cherry and plum flavors that perhaps demand a richer entrée than salmon…steak comes to mind.  

Panther Creek Cellars, one of Oregon’s most well-known brands, begins a new era Saturday when it opens the doors to its new tasting room in Dundee along bustling Highway 99.  

Panther Creek Cellars, one of the first Oregon wineries recognized for its exceptional regional blends and single vineyard designate wines, especially Pinot Noir, Pinot Gris and Chardonnay, has made a new home in Dundee: 110 SW Highway 99W.  

​Bacchus Capital Management announced new leadership at its wineries Wine by Joe/Dobbes Family Estate and Panther Creek Cellars, both located in Oregon.  

This 2010 single-vineyard wine from Shea Vineyard offers aromas and flavors of cran-cherry, earthy mineral and smoky cedar with notes of black cherry, vanilla and spice.
