Evening Land Vineyards is the Oregon-based brainchild of Sashi Moorman and Raj Parr, two of California’s most revered winemakers. Chardonnays from this specific area of Oregon are frequently compared to those of Burgundy, and this slightly reductive, incredibly complex bottling is no exception!
Organic and practicing biodynamic farming methods, LIVE certified, dry farmed, and only 695 cases produced.
Although lesser known than its Pinot Gris / Grigio and Pinot Noir relatives, make no mistake—high-quality expressions of Pinot Blanc are absolutely worth seeking out (especially for fans of German wines). This wine is LIGHTS OUT and the perfect white for Thanksgiving.
Sustainable and dry-farmed vineyards (Fair’n Green certified), native yeast fermentation, minimal intervention and a family-owned estate.
Sancerre, Gruner Veltliner, Vermentino lovers – This one’s for you. Grown on the volcanic island of Ischia, this wine quite literally tastes like the azure waters of the Tyrrhenian Sea. Our director of imports enjoyed this wine for the first time with a large bowl of pasta alla vongole after an ocean dip. “The salty sea still lingering on my lips and this light, crisp wine on that hot day was unparalleled.”
Organic farming practices, hand-harvested, native yeast fermentation, minimal intervention winemaking and only 400 cases produced.
Notes of fresh lemon, ripe pear and fresh flowers, rounded out with hints of apricot, cream and baking spice. Full bodied with crisp acidity and found finish.
Try serving the wine with seared salmon with crispy skin, a whole smoker roasted chicken or pumpkin ravioli.
