Vineyard Notes
The Northern Willamette Valley is Oregon's most recognized appellation for cool climate wines, and it is in the northern part of this valley where the finest vineyards are found. Wines of the Origin Series are a reflection of the unique climates, geographical features, and growing conditions that embody each distinction region where we source our grapes. Preservation of place is essential to our winemaking philosophy, and in accordance to our environmental principles, all of the vineyards we work with are at a minimum certified sustainable.
The Eola-Amity Hills are influenced by maritime breezes funneled through the Van Duzer Corridor. The region has predominantly volcanic, Nekia soils which are rocky and shallow. Cooling winds keep disease pressure low in this AVA, and help to slow phenolic ripening which allows for long hang times and full maturity of fruit.
Tasting Notes
This wine is from Zena Crown Vineyard, a pristine site we've been working with for over a decade. Wines from this site are consistently some of the most distinctive and aromatic in the cellar. Flavors of wild blueberries and Oregon grape are accented by secondary notes of forest floor, violets, and a wisp of tobacco.
