In the fall of 2016 everyone said carbo on Pinot Gris was an insane idea. By the spring of 2017, this wine was sold out with a waiting list. TBH, not much has changed since then, as this wine is arguably our biggest crowd pleaser. 7 to 14 days of carbonic maceration on Willamette Valley Pinot Gris from some of our favorite sites in both the northern and coast-leaning parts of the AVA. A perfect intro to “orange” or skin contact styles, this wine ends up somewhere between adult Tang and an Alpine day dream.

What is natural wine?
Natural wine is wine made with minimal intervention from the winemaker, using organically or biodynamically grown grapes and without the addition of chemicals or additives such as sulfites. The result is a wine that is unique, expressive, and often has a more complex and nuanced flavor profile than conventional wines. Natural wine is also often associated with sustainable and ethical farming practices, making it a popular choice for those interested in environmentally friendly and socially responsible products.
