High-toned, bright Pinot Noir from two different vineyards in the Sonoma County AVA

Hand harvested, organic, dry-farmed

Roadisde strawberry, mild earth, vivacious, classic

100% Gamay from the oldest vines, which are from 80 years on up, on heavy clay soils with relatively little granite and quite a lot of the iron-like mineral manganese. Vinification is traditional, semi-carbonic Beaujolais style.  Maceration lasts around 18 days for the Cuvée Tardive, & the wine is aged in large, old oak foudres for about 9 months before bottling.

Always the best example of Shea Vineyard as a whole in a given vintage, the Estate draws you in with lush red fruit and honey aromatics. The palate is beautifully balanced with savory flavors and smooth tannins.

"Native New Yorkers, Dick and Deirdre Shea first discovered Oregon wine from a recommendation made in their local wine shop in the late 1980’s. They were instantly wowed and captivated by the quality of wine from this young winegrowing region. Soon after, they made the decision to invest in a 100-acre piece of vineyard land in an untried area of the northern Willamette Valley, in what is now the Yamhill-Carlton AVA. Their ambition was to grow grapes for some of the best winemakers in Oregon and beyond. More than 30 years later, that continues to be their greatest passion."

Mineral-driven, light bodied Pinot Noir from Germany.

"By soft nails" is a Greek folk phrase that can refer to youth or subtlety. Made from organically farmed Limniona fermented in concrete egg, this light-bodied red shows flavors of blueberry, vanilla, and cracked black pepper.
