WINERY DESCRIPTION:
Mission
To produce wines of purity and transparency at the highest level from select vineyards in Oregon’s Willamette Valley. Maison Roy & Fils began in 2012 by Marc Roy and Jared Etzel, the second generation of the Beaux Freres founding partners.
2013 Vineyard Sourcing
Gran Moraine – Yamhill Carlton AVA, Bulkawitz Dundee AVA, La Collina – Dundee AVA, Dundee ??? Vineyard – Dundee AVA.
Growing Season
The 2013 vintage was a polarizing vintage with its share of adversity. The vintage began very warm through the spring and transitioned in July to cool and by the end of July and through October it was torrentially rainy and humid. This slowed ripening and brought botrytis. We sorted in the vineyard and in the winery to discard up to 45% of the yield to reach our quality goals. What remained produced a wine we are very pleased with.
Tasting Note - Wine Spectator 92 Points
The Incline represents our barrel selection of the “crème de la crème” of the 2013 vintage. The wines from this vintage show balance and elegance. Aromatically rose and fresh red berries. The palate shows the hallmark pure red fruit of the Willamette Valley with a long finish and polished tannins. This wine should be in its prime drinking window between now and 2024.
Technical Points: Alcohol 13.5 % pH 3.60 TA 5.9g/L.
