Update on Growing Season

Time for a new graph to be posted.  This one starts at the beginning of August and runs through the end of September.  Click on the graph to expand it if you like.

As you can see, we're tracking along the same line as the 2006 vintage.  We also have a slight amount of burned fruit like we did in 2006.  The heavy rain early in August was a nice blessing too.

Don't forget to come by and try the new Siegerrebe before it is too late.  It has become very popular.  I also might pull out something new this weekend for a preview tasting.  -Jon-

Announcing Q3 Wine Club Shipment

September 12 & 13 will be the weekend for the next wine club pickup.  We will be open 11-5 both days. 

What's in it, you ask?  The 2006 Kelsey Pinot Noir & the not yet released 2006 Tempranillo Reserve.

Siegerrebe: now we have 2 white wines

If you've come to The Cow recently, you know we've been busy developing some new and very interesting varietals. 

The weekend of 8/22 we'll be releasing the first of these new wines, our 2008 Siegerrebe. With its crisp, tart, melons and apricot flavors, this wine is a delightful change of pace from the fruit-forward Pinot Blancs and Gris that are so prevalent in Oregon.

Come, try it and learn how to pronounce it....compared to Sieg, pronouncing Tempranillo is a cakewalk  ;o)
