The 2021 vintage was a unique growing season
in the Willamette Valley. The year started much the same
as it has for twenty years, with bud break beginning in
mid-April. The summer was hotter and dryer than usual,
with new record high temperatures in the Willamette
Valley. Despite the intense heat, we picked grapes with
balanced sugars and acids, giving us wine that is
immediately charming, with vibrant fruit and supple
textures.

Made with fruit from seven vineyards, the 25% whole cluster-fermented wine rested in 25% new French oak for 10 months. It is fuller-bodied, with fine-grained tannins and all the blackberry and blackcap raspberry fruit you can handle, accented by mint, lavender and black tea with lemon.
