Estate
Latchkey Vineyard is situated at 500 feet on a southern aspect in the Dundee Hills of Oregon’s Willamette Valley. Planted mainly to Pinot Noir from the
Pommard family as well as Chardonnay, the vineyard spans 13 acres that stretch from the top of the hill down to the road below. It sits directly South
of Haakon/Lenai Vineyard.

Cotton candy, rose petal, wild flower, raspberry sherbet, cherry sorbet, black cherry, eucalyptus, flower, honey, tobacco.
Vinification
Purple Hands is a low intervention, purity-driven winery. Ferments are a mixture of techniques: native yeasts, and some commercial strains as needed.
25% whole cluster for 2023. Skin macerations are vintage-dependent styles. Wines are bottled unfined and unfiltered to retain the honesty of the vineyard and the vintage
