95 Points | James Suckling - "This off-dry Oregon riesling is brimming with peach, Asian pear and mandarin orange aromas! On the palate there’s an exciting interplay of racy acidity and juicy fruit, then comes the extremely long, crisp and mineral finish that promises great aging potential. From a high-altitude site with volcanic soil. Limited production. Drink or hold."

A dry, food-ready Riesling with bright acid and notes of stone fruits and citrus, with an oyster shell finish.

Pairs with a lobster sscabeche with papaya or other tropical fruits mixed with peppers, cured with orange and lime juice.
Josh Forkner
Culinary Director
The 2021 is beautifully crafted medium dry riesling grown from some of the oldest Riesling vines planted at foothills of the coast range. Aromatically alluring with notes of candied lime peel, honeysuckle and fresh ginger. On the palate, orange marmalade, apricot and dried golden raisins meld beautifully with a lip smacking acidity and a lovely rich finish.

Winemaking Notes

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.
