Description
Lone Oak Ranch is intended as an introduction to Purple Hands, sold eclusively through our distributor partners. It is a cuvée from six premier vineyards from four Willamette Valley AVAs:Dundee Hills, Yamhill-Carlton, Ribbon Ridge, & Willamette Valley. This elegant Pinot Noir includes fruit from all of our vineyard-designates. Made of 100% Pinot Noir from the Willamette Valley and aged 10 Months, 85% Neutral Oak, 15% New French Oak.
Vinification
Purple Hands is a low input, purity-driven winery. Ferments are a mixture of techniques: Pied de Cuve, native yeasts, and some commercial strains as needed. Whole cluster and skin macerations are vintage-dependent styles. Wines are bottled unfined and unfiltered to retain the honesty of the vineyard.
