Evening Land’s red wines begin with the 2010 Gamay Noir Celebration. It was sourced from a parcel planted in 1983, the first commercial plantings of Gamay Noir in the USA. It was fermented Beaujolais style with indigenous carbonic maceration in a closed vat. The wine was then aged in used French oak. Aromas of smoke, game, and meat inform the nose of a savory, concentrated wine with loads of flavor, excellent acidity, and a lengthy finish. Drink this outstanding effort over the next 4-5 years. Evening Land Vineyards is a group headed by movie magnate Mark Tarlov that also owns Pinot vineyards in the Sonoma Coast and Santa Rita Hills and is making wines in Burgundy. They gained control of one of the Willamette Valley’s prized properties, Seven Springs Vineyard, and created an immediate sensation by signing on Dominique Lafon of Comte Lafon in Burgundy as consulting winemaker. The Evening Land group is also making a major effort to restore the health and vitality of Seven Springs. The most recent development is the addition of renowned Master Sommelier Larry Stone as President and GM of the group in August 2010.Tel. (503) 395-2520; www.eveninglandvineyards.com
