Shiba Wichern Cellars - Oregon Pinot noir, Auxerrois & Sparkling

[Robert_Dentice]

New winery to me. Excited to try these.

[David_JM]

Just bought some pre-release, and loved the last batch of the pinot cube.
My guess: Cab Franc

Can’t wait to get the juice!

[Andy_Kohl]

In for a half case, our favorite willamette visit! Guess is Gewurztraminer

@Robert_Dentice & @David_JM Thank you for the orders. I hope you enjoy!

I see a number of orders coming in, but I don’t see the corresponding guesses to win a free bottle. There are still plenty of chances to win! Here is the description of the game again:

@ChrisWichern

THE GAME

We are in the process of planting a new vineyard with the goal of producing an estate field-blend white. So far we have 12 varietals planted (not counting different clones). If you can guess one of the varietals, you get a free bottle of wine.
BONUS - there is one varietal that I am pretty sure no one will guess. If you guess that varietal, you get SIX bottles free!
All games need rules. So here we go:

1. You are allowed to make ONE guess after you’ve placed your order. (That’s a legality thing. Some states don’t let us give away booze as a prize if you haven’t bought any…)
2. Make your guess by responding to this thread.
3. Once a varietal has been guessed correctly, it is out of play. (Hint: if you see someone has already guessed a varietal, choose something else…)
4. If you guess correctly, I will refund you the amount of the lowest cost bottle in your order.

In for a mixed case. Savignin?

[Carol_C1]

In for six. I guess Scheurebe.

[Michelle_Regin]

In for three, excited to try a new winery! My guess is pinot blanc!

[Chris_Blum]

Very excited for the field blend. I love your white wine. I see pinot blanc was sniped, so pinot meunier

[Scott_K1]

In for the cuvee, sparkling, and rose. These are great folks and make great wine!

[ShelbyPerkins]

100%

I like Shiba Wichern wines so much I literally bought their old house in McMinnville.

Great people, great taste in houses, great wines, what more do you want!!!
