The Wine

Nicolas-Jay is pleased to offer a single-barrel selection from Bishop Creek, our flagship estate vineyard. For this unique bottling, we have selected the best barrel from the original 1988 plantings of own-rooted Pommard. These nearly-30-year-old vines produce an ample yet balanced wine on the palate, with dusty bramble fruit and bright cherry alongside complex layers of minerality and generous tannin structure. This wine will age beautifully in the years to come.

Learn more about this lot during Preview Week, when Jay Boberg will present this wine during a virtual tasting session on July 26. Register here.

The Winery

Nicolas-Jay is the story of a three-decade friendship between famed Burgundian winemaker Jean-Nicolas Méo and visionary music entrepreneur Jay Boberg, and their shared love of Oregon Pinot noir. It is also the story of their desire to build something lasting together, while creating a distinctive expression of great Willamette Valley Pinot noir. At Nicolas-Jay, this is achieved by applying viticultural and winemaking experience gained from working with the Grands Crus of Burgundy and the finest grapes from Oregon.
