WINES
Every vintage has a distinct personality arising from the site, the clones, the weather, the balance between acids and sugars at harvest, and of course, the touch of the winemaker! At Crumbled Rock we strive to bring out what we believe are the best characteristics of each vintage.
Pinot Noir
The Dundee Hills are world renown for distinct berry flavors and our wines are no exception! Berry, warm cherry, slight vanilla and underlying spices typically define Crumbled Rock’s Pinot Noir. The color of the wine varies from a garnet to a deep ruby, depending on the vintage. A rich and creamy mouth feel is present in all vintages. For details on clones and barrels, contact our winemaker at gerry@crumbledrockwines.com.
Pinot Noir pairs well with salty and earthy foods. We recommend feta, manchego, and charcuterie for appetizers; mushroom, salmon and lamb dishes for entrees.
Riesling
The Riesling vines at Juliard Vineyard are the last remaining vines from the original vineyard planted by Tom and Sharon Saucey in 1970. Over the years, these old vines have consistently produced wines that display the character of the variety whether produced as a dry wine or a late harvest wine.
