2019 Ovum 'Old Love' White, Oregon
2019 OLD LOVE ‘White Wine’ comes from FIVE different Riesling vineyards planted throughout Oregon: Willamette, Eola-Amity, Columbia Gorge, Southern OR. The sites are focused on sustainable farming practices - dry farming, organic and minimal additions. Some are not certified organic, but are in the process of converting. Each site is chosen for its unique qualities that it will lend to the final wine. After a soak on skins (different for each site), the fruit is pressed into tank where native fermentation begins. Then, approximately 35% of the juice in tank is racked into: amphora, Austrian cask, cement egg and neutral barrel. After 28 days or so, the wine in the vessels is added back to the wine in stainless steel. Once it is fully blended, 35% of the wine is placed back into amphora, cask, egg and barrel. This process is repeated three times.
