Abacela has a reputation of making some of the highest quality wines in Oregon as well as in the United States. Just last month Wine Business Monthly published their 7th edition "Hot Small Brands of America" and Abacela was one of ten to make the list for 2009.
Not only are they experts in grape growing and winemaking, but their hospitality is top notch. Tasting Room Manager, Linda toured us around the vineyards sites, production pad, first and second barrel rooms, and bottling line. See what the camera captured:
We also extensively tasted through the diversity of Abacela wines. Our favorites of the day could not be narrowed down tighter than the 2008 Rosado, 2007 Granacha, 2007 Malbec, 2006 Estate Syrah, and 2006 Port.
