The Willful winemaking style embodies the duality of a strong will and using restraint when necessary. Pinot noir can be a tough grape to work with, but it can also be the most rewarding in its elegance, balance, and complexity. We seek to unleash its unique complexity with gentle viticulture, native yeast fermentation, and minimal French oak influence, bringing out the true nature of the grape from carefully selected Willamette Valley vineyards. We also offer Cabernet Sauvignon and other Bordeaux-varietal red blends from the Walla Walla AVA in eastern Oregon.
Oregon-grown Tempranillo is some of the best out there, and by popular demand, we are releasing this wonderful wine made from grapes of the Delfino Vineyards.
"silken textures and a contrast of ripe berry fruits.. with a coating of sweet tannins and mineral tones that linger on and on. Lovely. " 92pts Vinous, 91pts WE
