"The harvest period itself was warm, but not unlike several other recent years. The grapes were in good condition at harvest, with near-ideal grape chemistry.
Most notably, the colors and flavors of the 2021s will likely place them in the history books as one of the most exciting years to ever come out of Oregon's Willamette Valley.
The wines are both concentrated and rich, yet soft and silky. The alcohol levels are moderate in many cases. The acids could be described as bright but balanced.
The 2021 vintage is one for the ages." Louis Skinner, Winemaker
