Baltasis sausas
This new Oregon project from Beck Family Estates debuts with a fresh, minerally blend of grapes from Seven Springs, X Omni and Chehalem Mountain vineyards. Indigenous yeast fermentations were done in one-third new oak, then aged in stainless steel prior to bottling. Green melon, green apple, apple skin and cucumber flavors combine in a wine with excellent balance and penetration.
Our winemaking is a natural continuation of our farming, as they are intrinsically linked. Just as we’ve shepherded vines throughout seasons, our task remains one of quiet observation, of understanding what is in front of us. We do not use our hands to mold the raw material to our liking, but rather to help preserve its natural shape. When those hands become stained, crevassed and cut, it is not because we’ve conceived a wine to our image, but because we’ve carefully watched over a process well beyond our influence, one guided by nature.
