greg o'flynn, proprietor
All great winemaking begins in the vineyard. Benton-Lane's winemaker, and vineyard manager, work closely together to ensure the grapes that arrive at the winery during harvest are at the optimal level of maturity to produce wines of the highest possible quality. The interaction between the vineyard and the winery extends throughout the entire year because virtually every decision made in the vineyard has potential to impact the ultimate quality of the wine.
In the case of Benton-Lane Pinot Noir, our Estate Vineyard sits directly up-hill from the winery. During the harvest, picking is coordinated carefully to keep pace with the winemaking activities so the grapes are at the optimal level of ripeness and freshness to make the finest possible Pinot Noir.
Our Pinot Gris is produced from grapes purchased from carefully selected Willamette Valley growers. Our winemaker and vineyard manager work closely with our Pint Gris growers to make sure the highest quality standards are met. Growers are encouraged to pursue the same environmentally friendly, sustainable farming methods we employ here in our Estate Vineyard at Benton-Lane.
Great Pinot Noir is made with a gentle touch here at Benton-Lane. The grapes, fresh from our vineyard, are first sorted by hand to remove any immature clusters, leaves, or other undesirable material. Then the grape clusters are de-stemmed leaving mostly whole grapes to be fermented. We utilize two different fermentation techniques in the winery.
