The Wine

2019 marked the 20th anniversary of the founding of Alloro Vineyard by our owner and winegrower, David Nemarnik. Over these past two decades, Alloro has strived to create the highest-quality wines, focused on showcasing the unique personality of our distinct single-vineyard estate property. Even now in our 20th vintage, we continue towards building a deeper connection to this land. We have no desire to rest on our laurels (though we love our wonderful Laurelwood soil)—we instead look towards the years and decades to come with the same enthusiasm and ambition that got us here. Saluti a Venti Anni!

Our special Auction lot reveals an intense perfume of fresh black cherries and blueberries, with a potpourri of rose petals, black pepper, Italian spices, cinnamon, nutmeg and Kola nut. The wine is medium- to full-bodied and ruby in color, with a fine, velvety texture, pleasurable persistence and mouthwatering acidity that provides tension. This wine has a long finish that lingers with blackberries, spring flowers and baking spices.

The Winery

Alloro Vineyard is 110 acres of uniquely contoured, loess-derived Laurelwood soil. Located on a southwest-facing slope in Oregon’s Chehalem Mountains, this special place is the heart and soul of our wines and is personally cared for by owner David Nemarnik. We are 100% estate, crafting all our wines from our sustainable single-vineyard site. Our Burgundy-trained, UC Davis–educated winemaker, Tom Fitzpatrick, believes that a wine should be an “expression of place, at a moment in time” and should therefore capture the unique personality of a site as it is expressed in each vintage.
