Avalon Wine

A refreshing departure from retrospective top 100 lists: two wine writers we respect wrote about their 12 most memorable wines of 2024. It's a story of inspiration passed on. One writer, Eric Asimov of The New York Times, inspired Paul Gregutt, a 35-year veteran of Oregon and Washington wine reviewing, with his refreshing take on a year-end list, so much so that he created a similar list. We reviewed each list and were inspired by less common inclusions in each. Expecting a Willamette Valley Pinot Noir and Washington Cabernet? Not here. A Pinot Gris and Chenin Blanc? Absolutely! Now that we've put each fantastic wine through our own rigorous taste test, we're here to inspire you to add these to your fridge. We're sure you'll find them memorable!
