Being an Oregon native, Pinot Noir has a soft spot in my heart. That’s why it was such a treat for me to share all of my gems from Argentina, especially the Pinot, with 10 or so wine professionals from different wineries who congregated at Stoller Vineyards on Monday.
The Malbecs obviously were very interesting for them, but they also found the Mudai Pinot Noir to be quite intriguing. Different qualities from a different terroir.
Some of them even liked the collections so much that they signed up for the club! Now if that’s not an endorsement I don’t know what is!
I was so surpised at the reactions of wine industry professionals to our wines. When people like that comment on how good the price to quality relationship of our wines is, I get all fuzzy inside. Maybe one of them will comment on this blog?!?

“Noche de Vinos Argentinos” at Stoller Vineyards and Winery was a fun, educational & it goes with out saying”tasty”event.
I was one of those who signed up for the club, being impressed not only by the wines….but also with the value.
Just 4 days after my sign-up I received my Anuva Vinos shipment…..Wow, now that’s great service!
I look forward to my next club shipment …..and, future repeat of another technical tasting. If you are not yet a member….I encourage you to join NOW! ~ Grace

Daniel and “U.G.”
Thank-you for enlighting me with your collection of wines from Argentina. All were spectacular examples from their respective regions. If I had to pick a favorite, it had to be the Cavagnaro Reserve Malbec, although I really enjoyed the bonarda as well. Hopefully, you will come back to the Portland area soon and please keep me on the mailing list if you are doing any events in the area.
Also, Thank-you Mich from Erath Vineyards for putting this tasting together.
Cheers,
David
