Opulent aromas of walnut, ginger-spice, and baked apple meet razor’s edge balanced flavors of ripe pear and apple, bottled aged yeast, and mineral structure. The finish is very long, complex and enjoyable in this striking 10 years aged on yeast in the bottle sparkling wine.

Argyle Brut 2003
"Millions of tiny bubbles carry aromas of pear tart, honeysuckle, and vanilla bean. The flavor is zingy, with a blend of citrus, pear, vanilla spice, and yeast. The creamy texture is supported by quarried rock mineral structure. The finish is complex and very, very fresh." ~ Winemaker Notes

Perhaps the most exciting vintage for sparkling wine yet from Argyle! The aromas are a wonderful ebb and flow of fruit and mineral. Look for an immediate hit of peach with apricot fruit that flows into double baked wheat cracker yeast, then on into pear tart—vanilla crème. The flavor is multi-tiered and extraordinarily long. Apricot and pear fruit with a toasted yeast edge are balanced atop a crisp, mineral structure. It’s this marriage of fruit, bottle age, and mineral, which lend this Brut its...

Argyle 2002 Brut Willamette Valley
Description WS 90pts. - Tasting Notes - Like the first flower of spring, an orchard full of 'nashi no hana' springs out of the glass. Aromas of grapefruit citrus-blossom, and fresh baked vanilla-caramel ladyfingers ride the pinpoint bubbles up into your senses. Prospero in a glass. The flavor is a parquetry of Nashi pear, citrus blossom honey with an extra juicy, creme puff center. The finish is long lasting and fresh fruited, while retaining an amazing mineral structure throughout. This is one...

1993 Argyle Brut
- Highly touted for its Pinot Noirs, Oregon is part of the up-and-coming winemaking industry in the Pacific Northwest of the United States. Most of Oregon is directly affected by the climate coming off of the Pacific Ocean, giving it mild winters and wet summers. This makes it a difficult place to ripen grapes, but some say that the harder grapes have to struggle, the more complex they will turn out to be. Chardonnay and Pinot Gris are two important and successful grapes grown in Oregon.

Argyle Willamette Valley Brut 2005
Argyle's sparkling wine portfolio begins with the 2005 Brut, composed of 65% Pinot Noir and 35% Chardonnay. Medium straw-colored, this biscuity bubbly has tons of flavor, plenty of minerality and superb length. It is a great value in high class sparkling wine (and that includes Champagne).

Argyle Brut 2005
Cool fall seasons help give our Sparkling wines a lift of freshness. The aromas of this 2005 Brut have multi-layered fruit expressions of d'Anjou pear and lemon meringue pie. This wine smells "creamy" with toasted oatmeal, yeasty goodness. Fruit flavors of yellow plum, d'Anjou pear crumble blend well with a hint of honey and a rich mouthfeel of "creamy" texture. The pinpoint bubbles carry the flavor through to a deliciously long, long finish.

"This is a robust, bold bubbly! The aroma has ripe Santa Rosa plum fruit blended with rich toasted biscuit and cracked yeast maturity. The flavor is very robust of plum and apple fruit settling on a multi-layer slab of slate-like minerality. The finish is rich, creamy and yeasty with ripe Pinot Noir fruit character driving the impression of this wine on down the long, highway of ones gullet." Winemaker's Notes

Region : Oregon Most of Oregon’s wine production occurs in the Willamette Valley, where Pinot Noir reigns supreme. But the Southern Oregon AVA, generally known only to Oregon consumers, is gaining recognition for warm climate varietals like Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Syrah. Oregon microclimates range from cool, damp and breezy to warm and dry. Some of Oregon’s best-known wineries include Beaux Freres, Ken Wright and Sine Qua Non. View all our items from Oregon

The 2007 Argyle Brut Rosé is an artistic blend of Pinot Meunier and Pinot Noir, both grown on the highest blocks of Knudsen Vineyards in the Dundee Hills of Oregon. The very first aromas are of raspberry, juicy anjou pear and hints of Tillamook strawberries. The tongue-tickling fizz introduces a clean, satisfying minerality with excellent balance and mild tannin. Essence of sun-warmed rose petals and pomegranate linger on the palate and evolve into sublime hints of cherry-currant and strawberry...

Argyle Brut 2002
Many Oregon vintages are characterized by patience at the end due to a late start in the beginning. Not so for the 2001 growing season. We had wonderful weather at bloom, in fact too wonderful! The grape flowers pollinated perfectly and the clusters set were the largest in recent history. Large quantities of large clusters struggle to ripen in Oregon's cool growing season. So to ensure ripeness before the end of the growing season, we had to cut off more fruit than any year I can remember. With this...

Aged in the bottle with yeast...
