Episode 2 of Discovering Wine Country. We visit T

Episode 2 of Discovering Wine Country.
We visit Troon Vineyard in Southern Oregon's Applegate Valley. They are breathing new life into this vineyard and making some delicious wines.
Biodynamic certified, they are also the 2nd Regenerative Organic Certified Vineyard in the World.
Craig Camp their General Manager shows us the vineyard, introduces us to the sheep, we stroll the gardens and see the bee rewinding project.
We do a bit of an introduction of biodynamics before we meet Andrew Beedy, their Biodynamic Consultant and see the biodynamic shed.
Of course, we are talking about wine here, so we do a tasting before we leave.
This reel just gives you the highlights. Head to CrushedGrapeChronicles.com for the whole story and the full episode!

It's #nationalwhitewineday and it's #waugust so we celebrated both!
We paired a Luminesce white blend from @lecole41 with a riff on a Salade Niçoise with ahi tuna encrusted in crushed coriander seeds.
Where has this been all my life? So fragrant and perfect for this Semillon/Sauvignon Blamc blend!

100% Grenache from Walla Walla by @xobccellars .
This is Elijah!
The fruit is bright, with strawberry, Raspberry and red cherries with just a touch box nutmeg and something like strawberry soda on the nose.
Bright red juicy fruit in my mouth. Joyful with a bit of depth and seriousness.
At 13.8 it stays under your typical grenache heat. This grenache has a bit more nuance than usual andnI was diggin' that.
This wine was a gift froma WSET buddy and I am so grateful!
We paired it with steak romesco with baby broccoli and summer squash with almonds.
Happy Washington Wine Month

Another of the beautiful wines we discovered at @localstastingroom
This is a beautiful nuanced Sauvignon Blanc from @atoranowines It is nuanced and elegant then gets a little fiesty as it opens up in the glass.
We paired it with a Basque style fish stew. I had a recipe, but I lost it, so...I made it up, which is, I suppose the spirit of marmitako, which in Basque means, "from the pot".
This would be great with a txakolina from the region, but this Sauvignon Blanc was a great stand in. It had a bit of salinity on the nose and the acidity was just right with the food. With the food the wine gave a bit of spritziness, not with actual bubbles but I had that impression on my palate.
