The 2019 is a beautiful wine; pure and balanced with compelling aromas of roasted lemon, kiwi, and a hint of vanilla. The palate is layered with indulgent flavors of pineapple, lemon curd, and a touch of salinity, which leads to a long, elegant finish with just a wisp of butterscotch at the very end. It's fantastic on its own, but would also be a fabulous accompaniment to your favorite seafood dishes.
Dopp Creek represents the broadest combined expression of our Estate, and embodies our most approachable and versatile wine. The 2020 Dopp Creek opens with delicate aromas of rich purple fruit and thyme flowers. This approachable pinot noir has a juicy and round palate brimming with sweet cranberry and cherry, intermingled with wisps of cardomom and savory herbs. Well balanced, this engaging pinot noir is a delight to sip.

Margo, named after Colene’s great granddaughter, is comprised of selected vineyard blocks and barrels from our Estate.
A rich, polished nose of baked blueberries, cassis, vanilla and chocolate orange. It’s medium-to full-bodied with ripe, velvety tannins. Plush and flavorful. Drink now or hold. - James Suckling

Shows a simmering intensity beneath a polished texture as this red unfurls crushed stone, raspberry and hints of tarragon. Builds richness and tension toward medium-grained tannins. Drink now through 2030. —Tim Fish, Wine Spectator

Named after Victoria’s daughter and Colene’s granddaughter, Adriane is an estate cuvée composed of specifically selected barrels that possess deep, concentrated flavors and a persistent finish.
This unfolds slowly, with expressive raspberry and pomegranate flavors that draw in accents of crushed stone and savory bay leaf, building toward broad-shouldered but refined tannins. Drink now through 2030. — Tim Fish, Wine Spectator
The really tasty 2019 Colene Clemens ‘Adriane’ Pinot Noir reveals more depth and than the ‘Margo’ with pomegranate seed and iron accents that mingle well with minerals and shades of orange zest with salty tilled soils. The combination of mouthfeel and finesse really works here. Quite primary now, enjoy this deeply concentrated 2019 Pinot Noir over the next twelve years. Drink 2022-2034

Victoria is Colene Clemens’ daughter and our co-founder. Designed to represent the highest expression of the Colene Clemens Estate in each vintage, this stunning pinot noir is artfully blended from a small number of our very best barrels and most distinguished vineyard blocks.
Deep and densely structured, but the intensity of the cherry and pomegranate flavors suggests a bright future, with accents of crushed stone and rose petal that build toward broad-shouldered tannins. Hands off for now. Best from 2022 through 2030. — Tim Fish, Wine Spectator
The 2019 ‘Victoria’ is a gorgeous effort that is already nicely evolved. Sour cherry and black raspberry combine with salty soils aromatically. The freshness and finesse is outstanding as this is ripe and juicy, red fruit-driven wine that is best enjoyed over the next decade. Drink 2022-2034
