Somm Note

Winemaker Notes

The aromatics are giving and voluptuous with notes of blackcherry, leather, anise, bramble and hints of red cedar. On the mouth it has a certain refined elegance with soft tannins, violets, earth and cassis. Enjoy now or cellar through 2017.

Blend: 100% Pinot Noir

Professional Ratings

  • 91
    From a biodynamically-farmed five-acre, 11 year-old plating of seven clones, the Montalieus’ 2011 Pinot Noir Domaine Danielle Laurent is possessed of welcome, saliva-liberating salinity; a stony undertone; and a sort of cyanic glow of fruit pit, along with abundantly sappy fresh cherry and plum. A sachet-like mingling of dried herbs and faded flowers on the nose emerges as this stands open, to add allure.

Solena Estate, Oregon
Solena Estate Laurent Montalieu and daughter, Soléna Winery Image

After successful careers in the Oregon wine industry, the husband and wife team of Laurent Montalieu and Danielle Andrus Montalieu purchased an 80-acre estate to commemorate their marriage in 2000. In May 2002, they launched Soléna by bottling their first vintage of Domaine Danielle Laurent Pinot Noir and, shortly thereafter, opening a tasting room in Carlton. 

Soléna Estate began as a way to explore winemaking with other varietals grown in neighboring appellations while the family's young Domaine Danielle Laurent vineyard in the Yamhill-Carlton District matured. In May 2007, Danielle and Laurent added the spectacular 100-acre Hyland Vineyard in the McMinnville AVA to their estate vineyard holdings. Today, Laurent and Danielle are producing Pinot Noir from their estate vineyards as well as Pinot Gris, Merlot, Zinfandel, Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, and Late Harvest Riesling from select sites throughout Oregon and Washington.

Home of some of the planet’s most amazingly elegant and expressive Pinot noir, the Willamette Valley is a pastoral, mixed landscape of green, bucolic rolling hills, dramatic forestlands and small, independent, friendly wine growers. As a leader in environmental stewardship, the valley has some of the nation’s most protective land use policies, with two-thirds of its vineyards farmed sustainably and over half, organically. While the valley claims a cool, continental climate, and is heavily influenced by the cold, moist winds of the Pacific Ocean, its warm and dry summers allow for the steady, even ripening of Pinot noir.

The potential of Willamette Valley Pinot noir continues to attract the investment of serious growers and winemakers both locally and from abroad, as naturally the finished wines bring accolades from professionals and enthusiasts. With a range of styles from delicate dried cherry, raspberry and hibiscus to stronger notes of truffle, mocha, plum and spice, a fine Willamette Valley Pinot noir is a perfect expression of both character and grace.
