Grape growing takes center stage in the production of Phelps Creek wines. Each craft bottling distinctly expresses the
Columbia Gorge AVA. Bright, rich fruit flavors layer upon lingering mineral tones drawn from deep and complex volcanic
soils. We restrict the vines to minuscule yields, ensuring quality over quantity. Extraordinary care leads to extraordinary
wines.

Phelps Creek featured at this year's IPNC
Last week, Pinot Noir devotees from around the world gathered in McMinville, OR for the 24th Annual International Pinot Noir
Celebration (IPNC). We were honored the IPNC selected us to pour our pinot noir alongside some of the world's best. At the
pre-dinner pouring prior to the Salmon Bake, Phelps Creek's Robert Morus poured the 2008 Cuvee Alexandrine Pinot Noir, made
by consulting winemaker Alexandrine Roy of France.
San Francisco Chronicle wine editor Jon Bonne shares his memorable experience with Alexandrine Roy and Phelps
Creek wines at the IPNC. "And of course, I had to try the two-fer efforts of Alexandrine Roy, who makes both her own wine
in Gevrey-Chambertin as well as an Oregon effort for Phelps Creek. The 2008 Domaine Marc Roy Cuvee Alexandrine Gevrey-

citrus. Both memorable, and both made me happy because Alexandrine was one of the true finds at the last IPNC I attended." Read
