91 points and one of the ‘Best Buys from Year’s Best Oregon Chardonnay’ in Wine & Spirits
Wren is Dai Crisp’s “home” vineyard, a cool site in Philomath that seems to give this wine a quiet intensity. With its light apple and caramel scent and tense, saline flavors, it comes off almost like Fino Sherry (though without a trace of oxidation). It’s dramatically savory wine for a seafood stew.

Dai Crisp grows all of the grapes used in our wines in USDA/Oregon Certified Organic vineyards. He has been farming vineyards this way for 25 years. This philosophy of using a natural approach with minimal intervention also predominantly influences our winemaker, Julia Cattrall.
