AboutMaison Noir Wines
Sommelier André Hueston Mack founded Maison Noir Wines in 2007, initially making small Oregon lots for restaurants he knew from the dining room. He had left a career in finance, worked in Texas and later served as a sommelier at The French Laundry and Per Se.
Maison Noir makes wines from grapes sourced across the Willamette Valley. Its labels and clothing draw on punk, hip-hop and 1990s skateboard culture.
Maison Noir 2020 O.P.P. Pinot Gris
American White
Apples, pears and peaches lead the fresh profile. Fruit is sourced from several Willamette Valley vineyards and combines grapes from multiple appellations, giving the wine breadth, complexity and several layers. This is an Oregon white made from Pinot Gris, with thirteen-point-six percent alcohol. The bottle is finished with a screw-cap closure. The winery was founded by sommelier Andre Hueston Mack, a former Per Se and French Laundry sommelier.
Maison Noir 2018 Bottoms Up Riesling Blend
American White
Bright and lightly off-dry, with ripe peach, citrus and honeyed orchard fruit lifted by a subtle mineral note. Riesling-led freshness gives the palate energy, while a small measure of sweetness rounds the texture without weighing it down. The finish remains crisp and lively. Pair with spicy noodles, roast pork, soft cheese or fragrant Southeast Asian dishes.
