Rain events at the beginning of bloom diminished yields, and a dry summer was punctuated with unprecedented heatwaves. The timing worked in our favor since the heat happened pre-veraison, and the vines handled it well.
Harvest started in early September, but lower temperatures across the state allowed for a long and measured harvest season, with harvest extending into mid-October.
No disease, high sugars, balanced acids, and great flavors. 2021 will undoubtedly rank as one of the top Oregon vintages.

"Bright nose of sliced apple, pomelo and grapefruit with a hint of spring meadows. Crisp and moderately juicy on the medium-bodied palate with an animating, very well integrated acidity. Long, properly dry salty finish with spot-on balance. A cuvee from more vineyards scattered across the region with volcanic and marine sediment soils."
