Founded by winemaker and owner Brianne Day in the 2012 vintage, Day Wines is a producer of boutique, artisanal bottlings made from fruit sourced exclusively from a small group of Oregon growers who utilize Biodynamic, Organic and/or Sustainable vineyard practices. To create distinct expressions of our corner of the world, we focus on fruit harvested from the esteemed Willamette Valley to exotic varietals found in Southern Oregon’s Applegate Valley AVA. We think think this wine is called Tears of Vulcan is because it's so good it could actually make Spock cry, and as Trekkies know, Vulcans do not cry easily.

2022 Tears of Vulcan continues a tradition of bright, structured, floral, spicy, citrusy, firm textured, skin-contact orange wine. Composed of fruit from two organically farmed vineyards in the Chehalem Mountains AVA, this wine represents both the limitless characteristics of Viognier, Pinot Gris and Muscat and the terroir of a specific place, at a specific time. This vintage, the fruit sat on its skins for 22 days resulting in an electric coral-orange color, firm tannins, bright acid, vibrant pepper, juicy grapefruit, red plum, and a savory long finish. This wine elicits depth and character, unfolding with time and air. Blood orange, fresh basil, sweet lemon, grapefruit pith, and ginger further add to the bounty of flavours and aromas. It was left on the skins for 22 days. All three grapes were aged for 6 months before bottling; The Pinot Gris was aged in neutral French oak and Acacia barrels, the Viognier was aged in an Italian clay tank that was made by the company called Clayver in Liguria, and our Muscat was barrel aged in neutral French oak.

Producer Description (Google Translated to English)
'Selection of traditionally cultivated organic vineyards, around 30 years old, dry-land and goblet-trained, we extract unusual nuances and complexity from the skins found on the smaller sized berries. The result is a surprising wine full of fruit and minerals.
Parajes del Valle follows a unique and particular style: organic, contemporary wines. Designed exclusively for enjoyment, they avoid artifice and disguises, they are honest, refreshing, aromatic and very varietal.'
