de Lancellotti Wines

The de Lancellotti Family Vineyard is owned by Paul and Kendall de Lancellotti. The wines are made by Robert Brittan. A hallmark of Paul and Kendall's winemaking philosophy is their commitment to stewardship of the land. In 2004, they received Biodynamic certification for their 27 acre vineyard. Certification is a complex process involving a commitment to the land and to the cycles of nature, as well as to strictly regulated winemaking practices. The Bergstrom and the deLancellotti Family Vineyards operations were the first two vineyards in the Willamette Valley to be certified Biodynamic.

Using France's great Burgundies as his benchmark, Paul deLancellotti aims to bring subtlety and elegance to his signature Pinot Noirs.

"I want to make an elegant style wine, but also a style that shows off the great fruit characteristics that this soil is capable of."

The classic terroir of his vineyard is carefully cultivated and produces expressive Pinot noirs that age gracefully. deLancellotti enthusiasts should look for an Estate Chardonnay in the coming years as the family's Chardonnay grapes come on line.
