Vineyard: Deux Vert
Articles mentioning wines produced from this vineyardWineries sourcing from this vineyardReviewed wines produced from this vineyard2010 Et Fille Deux Vert Vineyard Yamhill-Carlton District Viognier 200 cases, $24. This vineyard is located at a warmer site near Lenné Estate and has been a vineyard-designate for Et Fille since 2005. · Typical varietal aromas of tropical fruits including ripe pineapple with a nutty, almond note. Satiny on the palate with flavors of tropical citrus and honey, backed by a good cut of acidity. Good. Reviewed September 12, 2012 WINERY » ARTICLE »
2008 Et Fille Deux Vert Vineyard Yamhill-Carlton District Willamette Valley Pinot Noir 13.0% alc., 149 cases, $42. Inaugural single-vineyard Pinot Noir from this site. The vineyard is owned by Mike and Patty Green. Wädenswil, 113 and 114. Aged 10 months in 33% new French oak barrels. · A distinctive wine that reflects its Yamhill-Carlton roots. The nose is a challenge to describe but a pleasure to experience with aromas of exotically spiced stone fruits, fig, fruit bin and a hint of pine. Intensely flavored and big-boned dark fruit with undertones of earth and cola, yet silky and light on its feet with a huge, supple finish. Generous tannins should soften over time, but this will always be a tannic wine. Pair with protein like some rare prime rib. This wine is like a tatted biker girl: rugged but very appealing in black leather. Cellar this one. Very good. Reviewed March 2, 2011 WINERY » ARTICLE »
2006 Et Fille Deux Vert Vineyard Yamhill-Carlton Viognier 150 cases, $26. Deux Vert is one of the few Oregon Viognier vineyards.

2003 Anne Amie Deux Vert Vineyard Willamette Valley Pinot Noir 14.0% alc.. This vineyard is owned by Dee and George Hillberry and is located due east of the winery in the Dundee Hills. · This wine is dark ruby in color and is loaded with sweet black cherry, cranberry, dark red raspberry, and licorice aromas and flavors. It is densely packed, powerful and firm, yet the texture is soothing. The finish has substantial tannins which are dry and a touch bitter. Give this one a few years in the cellar to mellow.
