Big Salt™ is a white wine that embodies a day at the beach. It's bright, fresh, dry and a bit salty (although no salt is added of course!) - once it's done you're left wanting more. We achieve this experience by letting mother nature create complexity - that is to say we allow all of the grapes to ferment together, with native yeast..rather than making a blend in the laboratory. Finding the right vineyards throughout Oregon that share the same cool climate is what it's all about.
2021 Big Salt is reminiscent of 2017 and 2019, meaning it is very dry, and very aromatic. Notes of pamplemousse, jasmine and freshly squeezed meyer lemon dominate the nose. The palate is racy and fun, and continues to have it's classic, salty finish.
