Rose & Arrow is the brainchild of Mark Tarlov, the man who started Evening Lands, and Louis-Michel Comte Liger-Belair. The aim is to make the best Oregon wines by uncovering the region’s Grand Cru terroirs.

Winemaking
Produce the very finest wines from the Basalt soils of the Willamette Valley. All fruit is destemmed, extractions are more like infusions, with regular gentle pump overs in open top fermenters, the oxygen-rich environment allowing for complex aromatics and very measured alcoholic degrees. Elevage is carried out over 12-15 months. The same coopers are used as in Vosne, with specific barrels selected and flown over from France each year. The resulting single-origin wines embody the pleasure of paradox: a light body with a depth of complex flavors, aromas, and textures.

Tasting Notes:
Rose & Arrow Yamhill-Carlton Pinot Noir 2018 is a high-quality red wine made from Pinot Noir grapes grown in the Yamhill-Carlton AVA (American Viticultural Area) of Oregon's Willamette Valley.

The wine has a beautiful ruby color and aromas of red and black fruits, such as ripe cherries, blackberries, and black currants, with subtle hints of herbs and spices.
On the palate, this wine is medium-bodied with soft tannins and balanced acidity. It has a rich and complex flavor profile, featuring notes of black cherries, berries, and plums, as well as hints of spice, tobacco, and subtle mineral undertones. The wine is smooth and well-structured, with elegant tannins and a long, lingering finish, making it an excellent choice for enjoying on its own or pairing with a variety of dishes.

Vinous 94 points: "Vivid ruby-red. A deeply perfumed nose evokes ripe red and blue berries, potpourri and exotic spices, and a mocha nuance emerges with aeration. Juicy and energetic in the mouth, offering appealingly sweet raspberry, cherry cola and lavender pastille flavors and building spice and mineral flourishes. Shows solid floral thrust on the gently tannic, persistent finish, which leaves behind a sappy raspberry liqueur note." -- by Josh Raynolds on February 2022

Rose & Arrow是Mark Tarlov和Louis-Michel Comte Liger-Belair共同孕育的點子,旨在發掘該地區的Grand Cru terroirs,製作最好的俄勒岡州葡萄酒。


釀酒過程
旨在生產來自Willamette Valley玄武岩土壤的最優質葡萄酒。所有的果實都被去梗,提取更像是浸泡,開放式發酵缸經常輕柔地泵送,富含氧氣的環境有助於複雜的香氣和非常平衡的酒精度。醇陳在12-15個月內進行。使用的是與Vosne相同的桶匠,每年選擇特定的桶子從法國運來。由此產生的單一來源葡萄酒體現了矛盾的樂趣:輕盈的酒體和複雜的口感、香氣和質感。
