Winemaker Notes: The ‘Estate’ designation is from our oldest block of Riesling planted on the gentle slopes of the winery property. This sublime wine highlights the quality that old vine material can give from this noble grape in the Northern Willamette Valley. It shows a traditional bouquet of pear and apple overtones, with lean, mineral notes on the palate and finishes with a hint of petrol. A pretty wine now yet has enough fruit and balanced acidity to age a number of years with cool cellaring.
