For years, we’ve thought about our Pinot Noir grapes in terms of the delicious w**e they would become. But one of the unexpected joys of growing grapes is discovering all the other places they can go.
Check out A Punto Amaro Aperitivo from canbar_pdx crafted right here in Portland by my wonderfully creative friend Tobias and made from Pinot Noir grapes from Covey Ridge Farm & Vineyard
What a delight to experience something so familiar transformed into something completely new. Bittersweet, beautifully complex, and unmistakably its own thing.
There is something incredibly special about seeing fruit we’ve nurtured take on another life in the hands of someone with a completely different creative vision. I’m so grateful to Tobias for seeing possibility in our grapes and for giving them a new story to tell. And the timing couldn’t be better because…it’s NEGRONI WEEK! 🥃🍊
You can taste it at Can Bar tonight or find it at local farmers markets this weekend. **egrapesreimagined
