Add to my wine list2021 Division Gamay noir Lutte Willamette Valley
Division Winemaking Co.
Oregon
The iron-rich volcanic soils that dominate the Eola Amity Hills have demonstrated the
highest potential for serious(ly good) Gamay that we have found in Oregon. These soils
make up the majority of our Willamette Valley Gamay and thus the “Lutte” bottling.

Vinification
Fermented with native/spontaneous yeast and both whole cluster carbonic and semicarbonic technique, as well as some destemmed traditional fermentation to capture
the best of Gamay’s worlds - spice, fruit, tension, and generosity. Aged in old barrels
and concrete tanks, the wine was bottled after 8 months.
