We are hosting Danny Klieman of Lonesome Rock Vineyards for an incredible night of food and wine in our garden. Join us as we taste through his magnificent offerings from Willamette Valley.
Farmed organically and sustainably with 270 degrees of exposure, including an uncommon, northerly-facing parcel, the well-drained hillsides at Lonesome Rock consist of the cool volcanic soils found in the Dundee Hills. Climbing from 575 to 765 ft., the 15-acre vineyard is planted to chardonnay, pinot meunier, and 5 different heritage, dijon, and exotic clones of pinot noir.
Mountains to the north and west protect us from threatening precipitation during the growing season by creating a “rain shadow,” while the elevation and coastal influences result in a 45-degree difference between day and nighttime temperatures during the critical weeks of ripening. These unique micro-climatic conditions work together, allowing our naturally low-yielding vineyard to ripen incrementally
