JOHAN VINEYARDS Melon de Bourgogne 2022 * Van Duzer Corridor, Oregon
Located in Oregon’s Willamette Valley, within the Van Duzer Corridor AVA, Johan Vineyards is a 175-acre certified Biodynamic® estate vineyard and winery with 87 acres under vine. Our goal is to create a self-sustained holistic farm system with the energy to produce an honest expression of itself, to share with others.
The Melon from our site is quickly becoming one of our superstar whites in the Johan line-up! After a 3-hour skin maceration, we pressed the juice off the skins, then barrel fermented and aged the wine on its original lees for 11 months. This extended ‘sur lie’ aging is inspired by the classic wines of the Muscadet region of the Loire Valley, yielding a complex and compelling expression of Melon from our marine sedimentary soils. Our interpretation "rhymes" with theirs, so to speak, but with a new world voice with which we deeply resonate.
