$39
Description
“Heavy Water” is definitely the wine that put Cutter Cascadia on the map with the wine dorks of Portland. Michael is farming nearly 40-year-old Riesling vines planted in the high desert of the Columbia Gorge. It’s an extreme environment, and the wine reflects this.
“Heavy Water” is one of the most mind-twistingly filigreed orange wines we’ve ever had, a chameleon that pulsates with both warmth and depth, structure, yet also flaunts acid with a capital “A” and a glacier-like core of mineral.
