2014 Brooks Amycas Notes
2014 Brooks Amycas TASTING NOTES Chris Blanchard, MS
Vintage: 2014 Vineyards: 30% Crannell Pinot Blanc, 28% Riesling (Ingram Lane, La Chenaie, Vitae Springs, Sunset View), 17% Muscat (Eola Springs & Brooks Estate), 15% Namaste Gewurztraminer, 10% B&J Pinot Gris Varietals: 30% Pinot Blanc, 28% Riesling, 17% Muscat, 15% Gewurtztraminer, 10% Pinot Gris AVA: Willamette Valley Barrel/Stainless: Stainless Filtration: Cross Flow Date Bottled: April 2, 2015 Alcohol: 13.4% pH: 3.24 Titratable Acidity: 6.8 g/L Residual Sugar: 1.06% / 10.6 g/L Case Production: 1,300 cases Suggested Retail: $18.00
Such an elegant, delicate perfume on the nose of gardenia, lilac, jasmine and orange blossom. Notes of white roses, applesauce, lychee, honeysuckle, lavender and spice. Ultra refreshing and floral, with bright acidity, ripe tangerine, passionfruit, grapefuit, papaya, and lychee nut. The texture is slightly oily and viscous, yet finishes tangy and tart with lemon and lime, green apple and fresh peach. There is such complexity in this vintage, that the descriptors continue to burst out with each sip. Quite an impressive blend! This wine would complement mild Indian cuisine on the lighter side, from chicken curry or chicken Tikka, potato samosas, or shrimp momos.

Our approach to winemaking is simple. We seek natural balance in the vineyard and cellar, to show the true expression of terroir in our wines. We are passionate about organic and biodynamic farming; as we believe it not only creates better wines, but these important practices help keep our earth alive and ecosystem intact.
