Day Wines ‘Vin de Days’ Rouge 2022
Location: United States, Oregon, Willamette Valley
Winemaker: Brianne Day
Grapes: Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier
From the Producer: ‘Vin de Days’ Rouge is our flagship red made to please a crowd, the 2021 Vin de Days Rouge is the product of the absolutely lovely vintage that 2021 is proving itself to be. The fermentation method yields a vibrant, bright red fruit profile with high-toned aromas of tart cherry, cran-raspberry and lilacs. There is a beguiling secondary complexity in the form of black pepper and mossy, mushroomy, forest floor, a reflection of the significant proportion of Pinot Meunier in the blend. Candied violets pop in the glass, and persistent acidity and racy red fruits define the flavor profile, but again the Meunier keeps everything balanced with a slight earthy, volcanic streak on the mid-palate. A crisp and refreshing finish brings you back to the glass again and again. Dangerously drinkable is the most appropriate description of this wine.
Founded by winemaker and owner Brianne Day in the 2012 vintage, Day Wines is a producer of boutique, artisanal bottlings made from fruit sourced exclusively from a small group of Oregon growers who utilize Biodynamic, Organic and/or Sustainable vineyard practices. To create distinct expressions of our corner of the world, we focus on fruit harvested from the esteemed Willamette Valley to exotic varietals found in Southern Oregon’s Applegate Valley AVA.
