MORE INFORMATIONSt Innocent makes Pinot noir, Chardonnay, Pinot gris, Pinot blanc, and small amounts of a sparkling cuvee offered every few years. The wines are carefully crafted, true to the grape, ageable and food friendly, a delight from first sniff to the last hint of their long, complex finish. Mark Vlossak makes reasonably priced wines that have a dedicated following. You may not have heard of St Innocent - most of the wine is sold in Oregon or to a select group of restaurants across the country with whom Mark has long term relationships. His devotees are loyal and they grab everything he makes. St Innocent's new winery was completed in the fall of 2007. The winery facility runs on gravity-flow systems that gently usher fruit through fermentation and into barrels, stored as they have been traditionally—underground. Starting from scratch after many years of experience has allowed Vlossak to design this facility to perform at maximum efficiency. Mark's Pinot noirs offer everything you could ask for, at a reasonable price. If we get enough, we try to have a "St Innocent Month" each year for our Reserve Pinot noir Club. If not, we dole out what we can get and hold back a bit for special tastings. Mark makes white wines with substance and grace. He models them on Alsacian whites, and a unifying theme among the Pinot gris, Pinot blanc, and Chardonnays he produces is a streak of uplifting acidity, and a stretch to express the terroir of the vineyard, and to bring out complexity in scent, flavor, and finish.
