Limited Addition "Noble Dry" Chenin Blanc, Willamette Valley, Oregon 2022
FROM LIMITED ADDITION:
THE WINE: The second release of this dry botrytized Chenin blanc from the Eola Springs vineyard. We fell in love with the exotic quince and candy cap mushroom characters in this fermentation, it is lighter in style than its 2019 predecessor but equally complex and likely more age-worthy. Bruised pear and apple fruits over candied dried mushroom and quince flavors fill the nose and palate of this unique wine. For us this is a true expression of Chenin blanc in the cool maritime influenced Willamette Valley.
THE PRODUCER: Limited Addition wines was born out of the conviction that Oregon’s Willamette Valley was an exceptional winegrowing region capable of growing many high-quality global grape varieties not yet planted, or even imagined here... yet.
Varieties that would suit the regions changing climate and be capable of making naturally farmed, naturally made wines, expanding the growing season, varietal diversity and build the regions resilience to climate change.
We believe that by changing the landscape of vineyards throughout the valley, every person involved in the wine industry has an opportunity for more- from the growers to the wineries theselves.
