Bow & Arrow ‘Rhinestones’ 2022

‘Rhinestones’ is Bow & Arrow’s flagship wine, sourced from the biodynamic Johan Vineyard in the Van Duzer Corridor AVA. It’s a blend of Pinot Noir and Gamay that’s an homage to the Cheverny appellation of the Central Loire Valley, from which Bow & Arrow takes a lot of inspiration. Light to medium weight, with nice deeper red fruit and fresh, crunchy structure on the palate. It’s a great intro to Bow & Arrow’s work and a great representation of how Oregon’s winemaking climate has a lot to say viewed through a Loire lens.
