Auxerrois Blanc Super Deluxe Cuvée

Scarcely planted in Oregon, this sibling of Chardonnay is most often seen in the alps of Germany, Switzerland and France, where it’s often co-fermented with Pinot blanc. We pick ours with plenty of acid and ferment it with white Burgundy in mind, which in this case means clean and saline with a slight aromatic of matchstick on the nose. 

Vinification: Direct press into two neutral white 500LT punchons. Rested on full lees for 11 months, racked to stainless steel for one month and bottled unfined and unfiltered.
