Biodynamic
Similar to organic farming in that both take place without synthetic chemicals, but also incorporates ideas about a vineyard as an entire ecosystem, sometimes taking into account things such as astrological influences and lunar cycles. The Winemaker, as well, did not make the wine with any common manipulations such as yeast additions or acidity adjustments.
Analemma exists to craft characterful wines through regenerative farming practices anchored to their distinct site and attuned to each vintage.
The Mosier Hills Estate Vineyard is the home and heart of Analemma. The natural landscape undulates across a south facing ridge sculpted by the Missoula floods, where glacial sands and cobblestones underlie a patchwork of oak and grassland. The cultural landscape embodies discovery, connection and purpose.

Tasting Notes:
A bright expression of fruit right up front, greeting your palate with notes of cut grass on a warm day. The wine is anchored by crisp acidity, but not so much as to overpower a fleeting tease of sweetness that leaves you smiling. Arsheen has a smart, refreshing character that will bestow clarity to a range of preparations of fish, fowl, and pork.

The three components for the 2021 Kubli Bench Amber - vermentino, riesling and roussanne - were grown and harvested with the intention to make this skin-fermented "orange" or amber wine. Riesling provides ample aromatics to the final blend, along with a surprising amount of structural tannins. Skin-fermented vermentino adds richness, depth and spice, while roussanne brings fruitiness, acidity, and additional layers of phenolic texture.
Because they are being grown for amber wines, we performed extra leaf removal on these vines in the vineyard to allow for more sun penetration into the fruiting zone, further developing the skin tannins of the grapes. These grapes were then harvested at slightly riper sugar levels with significantly enhanced phenolic development as compared to the same grapes harvested for a white wine.
