Johan Vineyards Maceration White 2021 Review
Johan Vineyards is one of five bonded wineries in the newly awarded Van Duzer Corridor AVA in Oregon. And this skin contact blend of Kerner, Friulano, and Grüner Veltliner proves the outstanding quality and innovation coming out of this new AVA. The nose and palate are alive with bright mineral notes of peach and orange peels. There is a subtlety to this wine that just works. On the plate, the acidity is blousy and only tamed by an expertly restrained tannic grip. It’s a wine that manages to be wildly refreshing and deeply structured all at once.
