Ovum's take on Aligoté shows restraint in terms of alcohol but not flavor. White grapefruit and wet granite aromas in no way prepare you for the wine's savory green olive, white button mushroom and lemon butter flavors. Look for softer acidity, with a rich mouthfeel. Try this wine with a plate of freshly shucked Yaquina Bay oysters. ... More details

Ovum Aligote smells like clean ocean air. You can almost feel the cold waters of the Umpqua River flowing through the wine–in the nose and on the palate. Hints of blueberry and green fig are hidden in the salty depths if you smell close enough. This is texture, palate driven wine–where it is at once lighter than air, and richer than grass-fed butter all at the same time. Its quiet demeanor has us leaning in to taste more, and the closer we get, the more there is to love.

Region: Oregon

Since the 1840s, vineyards have been cultivated and wines have been produced within the beautiful state of Oregon, which is now the United States' third biggest producer of fine wines. Although best known for their Pinot Gris and Pinot Noir wines, which have won several awards in recent years, Oregon is home to a surprisingly large range of fine grape varietals. Chardonnay, Merlot and Riesling also all flourish in the cooler areas of Oregon, and there are plenty of wineries across the state keen to experiment with all sorts of Old World classic varietals, as well as many of the hybrid grapes which characterise the country's wine industry. Oregon is also well known for its organic and biodynamic wine industry, making it a fascinating region for new ideas and new styles of wines, all of which are quickly gaining popularity around the world.

Country: United States

Of all the New World wine countries, perhaps the one which has demonstrated the most flair for producing high quality wines - using a combination of traditional and forward-thinking contemporary methods - has been the United States of America. For the past couple of centuries, the United States has set about transforming much of its suitable land into vast vineyards, capable of supporting a wide variety of world-class grape varietals which thrive on both the Atlantic and the Pacific coastlines. Of course, we immediately think of sun-drenched California in regards to American wines, with its enormous vineyards responsible for the New World's finest examples of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot based wines, but many other states have taken to viticulture in a big way, with impressive results. Oregon, Washington State and New York have all developed sophisticated and technologically advanced wine cultures of their own, and the output of U.S wineries is increasing each year as more and more people are converted to their produce.
