This is a local, small batch Portland wine maker who decided to try her hand at sparkling with fantastic results. This Grenache sparkler is really dry with a hint of toast and solid Grenache fruit. Very drinkable. On special at the local Whole Foods for $17. If you can find it near you, get some. There isn’t much out on the market. — 5 years ago
Little more fruit than I usually like in a rose, but overall a great wine. Will be buying again. — 7 years ago
Chehalem Mountains. Light salmon pink, excellent clarity. Floral and cherry on the nose, peach and cherry flavors. Mostly dry, nice rounded acidity, peach and cherry flavor with length on finish. I prefer my rosé drier, but those who like a fruity and dry-ish rosé will adore this. — 3 months ago

Off-dry with juicy fresh fruits such as pear, pineapple, lemon, peach, apricot, Lychee and yellow apples. Some stone and mineral notes as well as a hint of petrol. I'd be willing to bet this Cuvee has some Riesling in it! Absolutely delicious with great acidity! — 8 years ago
Tonight we needed something for Pinot and Pizza so cracked open this ‘13 Helioterra from Willamette to go with our Slow Hand sour dough pizzas. — 4 months ago

Off dry but lots of acid, which I prefer in a white wine. This is about as dry an Edelzwicker as you are likely to taste. Mineral and lactic finish. Good fruit here but not a fruit forward wine. This one is about acid, fruitiness and that savory finish. This is probably Pinot Blanc but the internet is notably silent about this wine in any vintage. — 2 months ago
