Wine Press Northwest names Elk Cove Vineyards 2007 Pacific Northwest Winery of the Year
more...

elcome to Elk Cove Vineyards, one of Oregon's oldest and most respected wineries. We've been making wine since 1977, and it shows! Elk Cove has won many awards and the critic's acclaim as well.

Family owned and operated, winemaker Adam Godlee Campbell joined forces with his parents in 1995 to continue producing outstanding Pinot Noir and Pinot Gris, and now Pinot Blanc!

Adam and his dedicated staff invite you to visit us and find out for yourself why we say “true quality is timeless.”

Recent Accolades

Pinot Noir

2006 Windhill: 91 Pts. "This is a lovely bottle from a vineyard planted in 1974. It’s an almost-perfect mix of flower, fruit, and stone. It mixes the flavors elegantly into a wine that captures the elegance of the grape along with bright fruit, crisp acids, and just the right amount of herb." Wine Enthusiast (November 15, 2008)

2006 Reserve: 93 Pts. "Rich, ripe, and expressive, offering a mouthful of dark plum, golden raspberry and even a hint of apricot as the finish comes together and lingers against refined tannins. This is beautifully focused with depth and distinctiveness." Wine Spectator (August 1, 2008)

2006 Roosevelt: 92 Pts. "Firm, even a bit gritty in texture, but tremendously expressive, offering orange peel-accented cherry, plum, tar, and exotic speice flavors that just don't quit as they sail through the long, open-weave finish." Wine Spectator (August 1, 2008)

Pinot Gris

2007 Willamette Valley: 91 Pts. Editor's Choice. "This is a fruit powered wine, leaded with fresh pear, melon, and tropical flavors. It shows no sign if having suffered from the wet, cool weather that hit Oregon during the 2007 harvest. It seems riper than the perfectly balanced ’06 bottling, with lower acids, and a streak of vanilla and coconut wrapping up the finish." Wine Enthusiast (July 1, 2008)

Riesling

2006 Estate: 91 Pts. "A fine effort from Elk Cove, this authoritative, bone-dry Riesling is laced with lovely streaks of licorice, and built upon sturdy acids and crisp green apple fruit. The wine is impeccably balanced, so that the flavors do not tire the palate or feel one-dimensional. It picks up interesting grace notes of citrus oil, tea and grapefruit as it winds through a long finish." Wine Enthusiast (November 15, 2007)
