About the producer
As a first generation winemaker, it’s difficult to say what propelled me into winemaking, but as soon as I experienced my first harvest I was hooked. There is something indescribably significant about accepting grapes from the earth and guiding them into something to share with others. As the daughter of a mechanic and a teacher, I’ve witnessed how hard work and commitment to a skill are the key principles to honing a craft. In 2016 I stepped off the path to becoming a Sommelier and into wine production. Significantly less glamorous, winemaking is laborious and intense, but strangely feels more organic to me. The more I used my hands, the closer to my family’s roots I felt. Technically trained, both academically and under the guidance of some of the Willamette Valley’s most intuitive and intelligent winemakers, I aim to make wines that grow as I do - with thoughtfulness and integrity. I let excitement and experimentation guide my practice and continue to learn each step of the way, aiming to create the best wines possible. MELANEY SCHMIDT
