Friday Sips

Drop by today for a special treat Friday Sips as we have Durant Vineyards' Libby Clow on hand to share wine and olive oil from one of Oregon's oldest vineyards and the Northwest's first olive mill.

From Durant: “Aged 8 months elevage in 30% new French oak 500L puncheons, 20% twiced used French oak barrique, 50% neutral oak barrigue. With a body of a white wine and all the intense aromas and flavors of a classic Dundee Hills Pinot Noir: bright red fruit, floral and some spice. “

From Durant: “100% Pommard clone, winemaker Marcus Goodfellow, 120 cases produced. The wine was aged 20 months in neutral French oak. Notes of ripe, wild strawberry with mouthwatering acidity.”

From Durant: “Unpretentious, fruity, racy acidity… and low alcohols. This is a wine meant to be consumed on your patio, front porch, or when tailgating with good friends with a barbecue fired-up nearby.”

From Durant: “A Spanish single varietal extra virgin olive oil milled at the Oregon Olive Mill. A blend of Oregon and California grown Arbequina olives milled & bottled in Dayton, Oregon at our Oregon Olive Mill. This fragrant oil has a sweet grass aroma, with floral undertones. Mild, smooth flavor with a hint of green banana. Perfect for drizzling over a caprese salad, pasta primavera, salads or as a dipping oil with bread.”

From Durant: “A Greek single varietal extra virgin olive oil milled at the Oregon Olive Mill. A blend of Oregon and California grown Koroneiki olives milled & bottled in Dayton, Oregon at our Oregon Olive Mill. This fragrant, herbaceous oil is smooth & buttery with hints of fresh-cut hay and a light peppery finish. A versatile oil for dipping or salads; also delicious drizzled over grilled or roasted veggies, pastas, meats or fish.”

From Durant: “An extra virgin olive oil milled at our Oregon Olive Mill from a blend of California & Oregon Frantoio olives. A delightful & fragrant oil that starts out smooth & buttery, revealing notes of artichoke & hazelnut with a lingering peppery finish. A pleasantly pungent oil for use in a diverse variety of dishes… drizzle on everything!”
