Oregon is undoubtedly one of the most interesting regions, outside of Germany and Austria of course, for Riesling and other white varieties that excel in cool climates and this is a fantastic example. The team at Ovum are wonderfully committed to low intervention, honest winemaking principles, so why not indulge our desire to escape modern tech overload and get back to the good and authentic things - like this delicious wine! 

From an "off the grid" organically and biodynamically farmed vineyard in Southern Oregon, aged in Acacia wood barrels, this is an especially luscious and textured Riesling, with deep colour and ripe stone fruit and herbal aromatics and a certain fatty saltiness that is just so enticing. Wonderful bright acidity keeps it fresh and will make it go a long distance, too.

Established in 2011 by Ksenija and John House, Ovum was founded in hopes of producing Oregon wines that are honest reflections of time and place. Their low intervention production method is a commitment to letting the vintage and vineyard shine, not the vintner. Fruit comes first - the top priority is finding farmers that share their beliefs, and then getting out of the way so their hard work can be tasted.

Native ferments, no subtractions or additions, except for SO2 - extended lees contact 8-9 months, for textural complexity. All of this is done in neutral barrels of acacia and oak, as well as cement egg (inspiration for the name Ovum) and Austrian cask. Ovum is committed to the exploration of Oregon’s wine growing regions by producing transparent wines of place.

At Ovum, each wine is produced the same way - if the wine smells and tastes different, it has everything to do with terroir, and little to do with the winemaker. The hope is that through attention to detail and honest technique, they can produce old fashioned wines in the modern world.
