| Description: | Oregon\r\nWinemaker Notes\r\n\r\n\r\nBig Salt is a white wine that embodies a day at the beach. It's bright, fresh, dry and a bit salty (although no salt is added of course!) - once it's done you're left wanting more. We achieve this experience by letting mother nature create complexity - that is to say we allow all of the grapes to ferment together, with native yeast.rather than making a blend in the laboratory. Finding the right vineyards throughout Oregon that share the same cool climate is what it's all about.\r\nAbout Ovum Winery\r\nEstablished in 2011 by Ksenija and John House, Ovum was founded in hopes of producing Oregon white wines that are honest reflections of time and place. \u00a0Our low intervention production method is a commitment to letting the vintage and vineyard shine, not the vintner. \u00a0Fruit comes first \u2013 our top priority is finding farmers that share our beliefs, and then getting out of the way so their hard work can be tasted.\r\n\u00a0Native ferments, no subtractions or additions, except for SO2 \u2013\u00a0extended lees contact 8-9 months, for textural complexity. All of this is done in neutral barrels of acacia and oak, as well as cement egg and Austrian cask. \u00a0Ovum is solely committed to the production of white wines, mainly Riesling, Gewurztraminer, and Muscat.\r\nAt Ovum, each wine is produced the same way \u2013 if the wine smells and tastes different, it has everything to do with terroir, and little to do with the winemaker.\u00a0 Our hope is that through our attention to detail and honest technique,\u00a0we can produce old fashioned wines in the modern world. |
