Vincent Wine Company is Willamette Valley winery making Oregon Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Pinot Blanc, Gamay and even red wine from Pinot Gris. Owner/winemaker Vincent Fritzsche launched the winery in 2009 after years of apprenticing in wineries in Oregon and California. We’re all about low-input wine making, working with several sustainably-farmed vineyards around the Willamette Valley to produce small amounts of handmade wine without a lot of fuss.

Armstrong vineyard is on Lewis Rogers Lane in the Ribbon Ridge AVA. It is owned by Doug and Michele Ackerman. We work with three parts of the vineyard, all Pinot Noir 114, 115 and 667. The soils in Ribbon Ridge are marine sediment, old seafloor that’s sandy and drains exceptionally well.

Vibrant yet silky and full of red fruit notes but still elegant. Floral and earthy.
