2009 Willamette Valley: 91 Pts. Smart Buy! "This fresh red is inviting and invigorating for its juicy black currant, plum and white pepper flavors, playing with zest against polished tannins and lively acidity. Drink now through 2019." Wine Spectator (January 1, 2012)

2009 Roosevelt: 90 Pts. "Dark ruby red in color, it sports a nose of exotic spices, incense, red fruits, as well as a hint of heat. Savory and long on the palate, this velvety-textured effort will provide optimum drinking from 2012 to 2019." Robert Parker's Wine Advocate (October 31, 2011)

2009 Willamette Valley. Excellent! "Few other wineries in Oregon approach this variety with as much dedication. Aromas of Golden Delicious apple, jasmine, orange blossom, lemon peel, chalkboard dust and a dab of petroleum jelly. It’s a smooth delivery of more apple, lemon chiffon and pineapple with orange pith, almond and fennel in the farewell." Wine Press Northwest (December 31, 2010)

2010 Willamette Valley: 90 Pts. Best Buy. "One of Oregon’s 50 Best Wines. With scents of sweet pear and almonds, fresh acidity, and flavors of baking spice and ripe peaches that linger on the palate, Elk Cove’s 2010 estate pinot gris is a definite crowd pleaser." Portland Monthly (September 30, 2011)

2009 Estate: 92 Pts. Best Buy. "This wine’s aromas are brisk and lifted, with elements of lemon curd and green apple. Its flavors are bright, lemony and firm, with a rippling acidity to guide the finish." Wine & Spirits (February 28, 2011)

2009 Estate: 91 Pts. "From old vines that offer more texture, steely minerality and nuance than young vines can deliver. Lemon polish, Key lime, a bit of grapefruit and much more." Wine Enthusiast (October 31, 2011)

2008 Willamette Valley: 93 Pts. "Sweet and spicy, tasting of orange marmalade, pineapple, hazelnut and honey. The luscious finish lingers with finesse. Riesling, Gewurztraminer and Muscat. Drink now through 2015." Wine Spectator (April 30, 2011)

1999 : 89 Pts. "Yeasty and proper in the nose, with a hint of apple blossom. The palate features healthy fruit...and some welcome nuances of nutmeg and cinnamon... finish is dry and long. The wine delivers the full sparkling wine experience with no flaws." Wine Enthusiast (May 31, 2003)

1999 : 89 Pts. "Crisp in texture, with layers of spicy, toasty pear and mineral flavors, which echo nicely along with citrus notes on the lively finish." Wine Spectator (May 31, 2003)

2001 Del Rio Rogue Valley. Highly Recommended! "Aromas of violets, plum, and graham. Concentrated flavors of plum and cassis fruit balance youthful tannins. Intense and focused, with a long, spiced-oak finish; cellar 2-3 years for softer tannins." Northwest Palate (June 30, 2003)
