Brooks has it all — Great story, great people, great wines.
Tree fruit notes of yellow apple and bosque pear characterize the nose and palate of this dry Riesling as well as accents of lime leaf and kiwi. Cherry blossoms and camomile flowers provide complexity to the expression of the wine highlighted by a bright, acid driven finish.
General Manager/Sommelier
A riper nose of white flowers, yellow peach and apple belie a palate with firm acid and driving phenolic spice. A palate that’s light on its feet while full of tension and minerality.

Winemaking Notes
Rain events at the beginning of bloom diminished yields, and a dry summer was punctuated with unprecedented heatwaves. The timing worked in our favor since the heat happened pre-veraison, and the vines handled it well.
Harvest started in early September, but lower temperatures across the state allowed for a long and measured harvest season, with harvest extending into mid-October.
No disease, high sugars, balanced acids, and great flavors. 2021 will undoubtedly rank as one of the top Oregon vintages.
