Ike Willis was a person I got to know both in person and through his time as Zappa's singer and guitarist from 1978-1988. Hearing Joe's Garage album when I was about 16-- his voice was powerful and distinct! Amazing singer and great guitarist.

Ike lived in Portland, Oregon for a bit and you could find him at Holman's on 28th and East Burnside often. He was always fun to share a pint with.

Gonna miss you Ike! (Stratocaster with a whammy bar)

Our 2025 Sauvignon Blanc is ready to go!

Direct press SB from the Rattlesnake Hills AVA on sandy loam soils at 1100 elevaysh.

Aged in a mix of concrete eggs and larger oval oak casks.

So green veggie or overly tropical notes here that you typically get with cold ferments. Think sea salt, umami and green pears.

Excited to have some more white wine to share!

Our new vintage of Sauvignon Blanc is coming in hot 🥵 and spicy. Just in time for the sunny weather to commence here in Oregon.

100% SB from a certified organic vineyard in the Rattlesnake Hills in Zillah, Washington at 1100 feet.
A mix of concrete Nomblot eggs and large oval casks on the aging.

In line with most of our whites-- think salt, lemon and hot stones. This is not a grassy or overly tropical SB. The native yeast and no temp control on ferments have a bit dot do with this.

Our new SB is bottled!!

A mixture of concrete eggs and older barrels. Some skin contact and some direct press.

This comes from the Rattlesnake Hills of the Columbia Valley at about 1100 feet elevation. Think salt, wet stones and umami rather than the typical profile you'd expect from SB.

Coming soon to a goblet near you!

A new release coming later this year...

Portugal 🇵🇹 has been a huge part of my winemaking and personal life for most of my adult life. I've been lucky enough to find some of my favorite Portuguese growing in very small amounts here in the Pacific Northwest. Touriga, Verdelho, Bastardo, Tinto Cão, Touriga Franca etc etc..

This last bottling of TNac is probably going to be my last, unless I make wine in Portugal one day... I'd still love to try my hand at my #1 personal favorite grape ever-- BAGA!!

It's a bummer as a winemaker to want to keep making wines that are personal to you and keep you excited about the craft, but the reality is-- it's been increasingly difficult to sell wine that isn't one of the more mainstream varietals. Even Gruner, Melon, Zweigelt are passed over. Gamay, Grenache and Mourvèdre are tough.

So!!! It's back to just Pinot, Chard and Cab I guess?

Cheers to getting back to Pinots and Chard! Woohoo!
