OENO (ee- no) is owned by Amy Atwood, who also operates a wine import and distribution company, Amy Atwood Selections. She has sought out top quality vineyards in Sonoma and a like-minded CA winemaker who makes these wines to her specifications (start with pristine fruit, then use native yeasts and neutral oak). Oeno wines are made in Healdsburg, California.

Oeno is the ancient Greek word for wine, as well as the name of a goddess known for turning water into wine.


Russian River Valley ‘Skin-Contact’

93% Chardonnay, 7% Pinot Noir

From 30-40 year old vines planted in the Russian River Valley and Sonoma County AVAs. The Chardonnay grapes are macerated in neutral oak for 20 days and the Pinot Noir is directly pressed, followed by spontaneous fermentation using native yeasts.

Sonoma County Cabernet Sauvignon

Sourced from head-trained “old-vine” Cabernet, 100% estate-grown on the Old Redwood block vineyard. Grapes were 100% de-stemmed and whole-berry pressed, and the wine was fermented with native yeasts only. Matured in 100% neutral French Oak and bottled unfined and unfiltered.


Russian River Valley, Pinot Noir

From 15-20 year old vines planted to a single vineyard called River Front Block in the Russian River AVA. With 50% whole cluster, native yeast fermentation, the wine is then aged in neutral oak and bottled unfined and unfiltered.
