Limited Addition Barrel Fermented Sauvignon Blanc, Willamette Valley, Oregon, USA 2022

Rather than brimming with green bean and gooseberry flavors as those from hotter climates do, the Willamette Valley expression from the Eola Springs vineyards is more exotic with guava, and creamy passionfruit flavors, in addition, we barrel fermented this wine in neutral French oak and it remained on its lees to build out the creamy palate profile until bottling of August 2023. As with many of our whites wines they tend to be the more full bodied and robust wines in our cellar, as is our taste for building concentration and complexity into age-worthy and cellar worth whites.
