Antiquum 'Perpetua Album IV' Willamette Valley Solera Pinot Gris NV

When asked why he decided to make a solera-style Pinot Gris, Stephen simply said "I had an idea, got excited about it, and we did it!" Beginning with the 2018 harvest, a portion of their Pinot Gris undergoes a quick ferment and is added to the multi-vintage assortment of barrels each harvest, like how sherry is traditionally produced without the layer of yeast on top. Vibrant, richly textured, and with a nutty undertone that glistens across the nose and palate, there is nothing quite like this wine in terms of its fresh and simultaneously developed fruit profile - a true Wine Geek's Wine. - Charlie Arnedt
