Sourced from the famed Crow Valley Vineyard and fashioned after chef David Chang's sense of umami, this is Teutonic's most ripping, roaring, and potentially their longest lived, Riesling. The grapes are affected with botrytis, also known as Noble Rot, which helps concentrate the sugars and flavors to offer up the kind of depth most people don't expect from New World examples of the grape. This dry Riesling is worth seeking out for all occasions, but especially for Riesling skeptics.
While serving as the wine buyer at Papa Haydn Restaurant in Portland. German wine importer Ewald Moseler showed Barnaby 14 different Rieslings from Germany’s famed Mosel wine region. Within minutes, Barnaby bought all 14 en route to starting one of the largest German wine lists in Portland. That same night, Barnaby told his wife and partner, Olga, that he needed to learn how to make wines as expressive to terroir as these Rieslings. Fast forward about 15 years, and Teutonic is on the forefront of winemaking in Oregon.
