Orogeny Vineyards

Orogeny you changed my life.
Or views of American reds anyway. I have always had an appreciation for red wine, but not true love for it. Whites have just worked better for me. In Paris of course red is the way to go. Really, what else is there in Paris, other than perhaps champagne. But in the US I stuck to the whites mostly.
Through Diageo I purchased one of your «mixed cases» back when they had the annual sales. This was one of the choices. I think we had three bottles in the box. It was love at first sip. For me and my family. And since then for anyone I have given a bottle to. Now this was the Orogeny Pinot 2007, and not available anymore sadly. Happy for you it sold out. Sad for us. But we did get a few cases before that happened. And we spread it around to worthy friends.
I still enjoy your wines, but Ive been chasing that «first sip high» ever since. Not yet found. But I continue to hope.
While I wish you were open to the public, when we were in the area in 2012 we drove by your place and took a look. Of course it looked much like the rest of the vineyards in the area.
But keep up the good work. Your end results are worth it.
