de Lancellotti

February 13, 2020

A small Oregon winery founded by Paul and Kendall de Lancellotti, their story begins with the planting of a family vineyard in 1998. Paul and Kendall were both early partners of Bergstrom Wines in 1999, followed by the the planting of the de Lancellotti vineyard in 2001 which is a 16 acre Chehalem Mountain parcel focusing on Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. Flash forward several years, de Lancellotti Family Vineyards was founded in 2005 focusing on producing high quality Pinot Noir that showcases specific terroir and vineyards. 

The new releases by de Lancellotti were really good across the board. Their new 2017 ‘Le Moe Figlie’ Chardonnay (WWB, 91) has great astringency and freshness from this great vintage for Chardonnay. I loved the 2017 de Lancellotti ‘Ornelia’ Pinot Noir (WWB, 92) which combines lovely volcanic terroir with great acidity and earthy tones. Learn more about this exciting estate at http://www.delancellottifamilyvineyards.com/ Here are the great new wines by de Lancellotti.

2016 De Lancellotti ‘Le Mie Figlie’ Chardonnay- The 2016 de Lancellotti ‘Le Mie Figlie’ Chardonnay shows lovely tertiary tones aromatically ranging from cinnamon infused challah bread to wet stone that all mingle in the glass. The balance and freshness of the wine is excellent, as medium-bodied orchard fruits play with nutmeg and sourdough bread flavors. Drink 2020-2027- 91

2017 De Lancellotti ‘Le Mie Figlie’ Chardonnay- Just as good as the ’16 edition, the 2017 de Lancellotti ‘Le Mie Figlie’ Chardonnay has medium-bodied Pink lady apple, nutmeg and French bread flavors. The brightness and soft texture of the wine really is excellent as this would be a wonderful pairing for shellfish. Drink 2020-2027- 91

2017 De Lancellotti ‘Arlyn Vineyard’ Pinot Noir- The ‘Arlyn Vineyard’ is located high atop the Chehalem Mountains AVA. The bright red fruit and citrus rind aromas entice. The freshness and weight of the wine is outstanding, as is the lovely peat moss and wild mushroom undertones. This is downright delicious wine that will cellar well for a decade or more. Drink 2020-2033- 92

2017 De Lancellotti ‘Famiglia’ Pinot Noir- The ‘Famiglia’ Pinot Noir shows lighter to medium-bodied cran-cherry and guava tones with hints of cinnamon and forest floor. With bright acidity, this will be best enjoyed over the next five to seven years. Drink 2020-2025- 90

2017 De Lancellotti ‘Onelia’ Pinot Noir- Sourced from the Dundee Hills AVA, the wine has a lovely dark fruit aromatic profile with a dusting of volcanic earth and damp earth terroir that all take shape in the glass. The palate has a silky texture that entices. Black tea, blackberry compote and shades of peat moss and wild mushroom all combine brilliantly. While remarkable in its youth, the ‘Onelia’ will have at least another decade in the cellar. Drink 2020-2033- 92

2017 De Lancellotti ‘Le Corsia’ Pinot Noir- Sourced from the Chehalem Mountains AVA, the ‘‘La Corsia’ opens with a lovely dusty volcanic terroir, woven together with an amalgamation of red and dark fruits aromatically. The soft texture entices, as the wine unveils a deep core of red fruits with damp earth and cigar box undertones. Every bit delicious now, the ‘La Corsia’ will have at decade of life or more left. Drink 2020-2033- 92
