2024 Willful Wine Company Jezebel White Oregon (750ml)
Jezebel White is the playful, easygoing second label from Willful Wine Company, crafted for immediate enjoyment. Led by Pam Walden, this aromatic white draws on Alsatian varietals grown in Oregon, anchored by Pinot Gris, Gewürztraminer, and Riesling to create a vibrant, approachable profile.
Grapes are co-fermented in a single stainless-steel tank, with daily lees manipulation to build texture and mid-palate weight without any oak influence. This hands-off, native-style approach preserves freshness and keeps the wine lively and ready to drink young.
The nose blooms with floral aromas and tropical fruit notes, including white peach, plus touches of guava and orange. On the palate, a hint of natural sweetness is balanced by crisp acidity, finishing light, refreshing, and inviting.
Jezebel White shines as an aperitif on its own and pairs nicely with roast chicken, German sausage, or spicy Thai dishes.
