de la boue: Part Deux

They’re back! Join us for an evening wine tasting with de la boue. Sample five wines from Oregon’s Willamette Valley, with a focus on their Pinot Noir varietal.

Travis Todd (winemaker) and Chris Andrew are the two-person team behind a winery called "de la boue" out of Willamette Valley Oregon producing 2,500 cases of wine. They farm Vista Grande, a 5-acre organic vineyard in the Chehalem Mountains and buy fruit from top organic/biodynamic vineyards like Temperance Hill, Gregory Ranch etc. 
 
Travis previously ran the wine program at The Yellowstone Club in Montana before moving to Oregon to become a winemaker. "Nostalgie de la boue" (day luh BOO) is a french phrase with a loose translation that means a longing for simpler times. Directly translating to “of the dirt,” de la boue is a reminder that it all comes from the ground beneath our feet. Past vintages are sold out and their 2023 vintage will be released for Allocation Program Members in spring of 2025.
