From the producer: We adore Gamay for its uniquely brooding character. This year’s “Lutte” defines that trait and jumps straight out of the glass with a combination of crushed rocks, strawberries, and peppery spices.

“Lutte” translates “fight to overcome” in French in reference to our efforts to bring Oregon Gamay Noir to the attention of wine lovers all over the U.S.

We added our first all-Willamette Valley AVA blended cuvée of Gamay Noir to our line-up in 2017 and believe we've steadily improved the quality of this wine vintage over vintage, making some adjustments in our vineyards to perfectly suit the type of Gamay we are striving for in this bottling, and that we love to drink. We use the carbonic maceration fermentation approach or variations of this technique for most of our Gamay lots, which we then age in a combination of neutral barrels, stainless steel, and concrete vessels for 8 months before bottling.

Winemakers Tom Monroe and Kate Norris of the Portland-based urban winery, Division winemaking Company, are all about making delicious ready to drink, wines inspired by Kate’s time in the Loire Valley and paving the way for Oregon’s recent “Loiragonian” movement. Sourcing grapes from nearby Willamette vineyards, they keep to a non-interventionist style of winemaking to allow the organic vineyards that they work with to really tell a story. The winery is housed in their Southeast Wine Collective, a custom crush project started in 2012 to promote collaboration and creativity for winemakers and visitors alike.

Tom, with a background in finance, and Kate, with a background in event management, started Division winemaking Company in 2010, making just 320 cases in their first year.
