2021 Brooks Estate Riesling
A bright and lively dry Riesling with mouth-watering acidity and expressive notes of lemon, beeswax, yellow apple, and sea salt.
Comprised of Riesling grapes from our very own Brooks Estate vineyard located in the Eola-Amity Hills. The vines were planted between 1974-1976 in volcanic basalt soil. Brooks Estate Vineyard is farmed biodynamic.

This wine is straw in color with a nose of beeswax, citrus oleo, with undertones of white lily. On the palate, the first impression has lingering zippy acidity. However, the mouthfeel does have a little weight with being aged in cask and beautiful notes of golden pear, lemon zest, and slate.

Enjoy with Mediterranean baked fish, such as cod, with roasted cherry tomatoes, kalamata olives, onions, garlic and shaved fennel. Serve with a side of herbed couscous and a touch of fresh lemon.

True to the cooler 2021 vintage, our estate Riesling is a nervy, acid driven wine with plenty of years ahead of it. Lemon-lime zest, flaked orange peel and yellow pear dominate the nose. On the palate, this wine is electric, with meyer lemon and sea salt, giving a succulent racy finish.

Winemaking Notes
2021 Vintage:
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.
