$26.99
Beckenridge Vineyard (Willamette Valley AVA) - Own rooted, dry-farmed vines, planted in 1976. 80% Skin contact Pinot Gris, 20% Barrel fermented Riesling. The Pinot gris was fermented on the skins for 21 days. A small portion of that (20ish%) was fermented via carbonic maceration in a separate bin. The two lots were pressed off together and put into neutral oak. The Riesling was direct pressed, and fermented in neutral oak barrels. Once the Riesling went dry (January), eveything was blended and put back into barrel, where it went through ML. Bottled without fining or filtration. Small sulfur add at bottling. 130cs produced
