2010 Vintage

Local favorite Lumos makes one of Avalon's most popular white wines. This 2008 vintage is shaping up to be full of the same beautiful, clean, crisp , citrusy qualities that we loved in the '07.
Logsdon Ridge Vineyard (aka Rudolfo in honor of the Rudolph family who owns it) is a small 10 acre vineyard planted entirely to Pinot Gris just north of Corvallis. Dai Crisp, owner of Lumos, has managed this site since 2001.
