Lady Winemaker!

33% Riesling, 26% Müller-Thurgau, 17% Pinot Gris 24% Gewurztraminer

After hand-harvesting, the grapes were destemmed and fermented spontaneously and macerated for three weeks with the skins before being pressed into neutral oak barrels to age and go through a malolactic fermentation. The wine was not filtered and only a minimal amount of SO2 was used before bottling. This wine has enough tannic heft to age for up to five years. Notes of tangerine, naval, kumquat, pomelo. Can age up to 5 years.

In 2012, Brianne Day bought grapes from a friend’s family’s vineyard and made 125 cases of Pinot Noir that were not only picked up by distributors in Chicago and New York City, but she was invited to pour it at the RAW Natural Wine Fair in London. Day Wines now distributes in twelve states and three countries. The winery sources grapes from seven Oregon growers in the Willamette Valley and Applegate Valley AVAs who utilize biodynamic, organic and/or sustainable vineyard practices.
