WINE STEWARD

At Elephants, our wine steward, Larry Halkinrude, has been sourcing our wines for more than 20 years. During that journey he's met some great local winemakers, learned to spot a good deal, and developed one of the best pallettes in the state. Elephants offers a great variety of honest wines at fantastic prices. With a selection of nearly 400 different vintages from around the world, Larry and our team are sure to find a number of bottles to suit your taste and price range. Enjoy any bottle from our retail wall while you have a meal or snack with us. You pay retail, and no corkage fee, and we even provide Reidel stemware. You can also take advantage of a 15% discount on any case, or 10% off your pick of six. 

Domestic
We offer a stellar variety of wines from Oregon, Washington and California. We specialize in small, family owned, and hard-to-find Oregon Pinot Noirs from vineyards such as Westrey, J. Christopher, Cameron and Winter's Hill. We also have a great collection of Napa Valley wines, a few of which are sold exclusively by us in the state of Oregon. And we haven't forgotten the luxurious Cabs and Syrahs from Washington. 

Imported
Our wine buyer, Larry, is a Francophile. He is a member of a wine fraternity in Macon, France, and visits the country nearly every year. Through his travels, he has found some amazing, value-driven wines that are off the beaten path. From majestic Chateauneuf-Du-Papes to the rustic wines of Roussillon and the Languedoc, Elephants has something for you. And, if you love Champagne, you need to see our outstanding collection of Growers' Champagne – Larry's pride and joy. We also offer a fantastic array of Italian, Spanish and Australian wines, and our selection is rounded out with wines from Greece, Chile, New Zealand and Argentina.
