Pale straw in the glass, with key lime, pear, and honeysuckle on the nose. This 2023 Pinot Gris layers fresh-baked brioche and lemon meringue over crisp orchard fruit, finishing dry and persistent on bright florals and minerals. Individual lots were pressed and fermented separately at low temperatures to lock in aromatic intensity, with brief lees contact building richness and texture.
The 2023 vintage tested our patience and rewarded it — one of the latest bud breaks on record gave way to a warm, generous growing season that delivered ethereal yet vivid flavors with fantastic balance. A wine that's serious and age-worthy, yet easy to love right now.
Sourced from thoughtfully chosen Willamette Valley sites — Willig, Sylvan, La Chouette, Silver Falls, Left Coast Estate, Scharf Farms, and Van Duzer — and crafted to highlight the diversity of the valley. Vegan. Enjoy well-chilled.
