You're Doing it Wrong
Will-AM-It, Will-UH-Met. Either way, it drinks the same. The difference is the company you keep while doing so. If you want to waste this beautifully crafted and polished bright garnet wine with a rich essence of fresh Bing cherries, pomegranates and blueberries on your fly-over friends, hey, that's your prerogative.
But just so there's no mistake, these disapproving glances between sips has nothing to do with this wine. On the contrary. I find its proportioned tannic backbone, bright acidity and appealing silky finish, well, appealing.
No, no. There's a simple explanation for this look on my face, the same one I get when I've stepped in a big pile of dog mess. It's the "regional accent" excuse enacted for that gross mispronunciation. There is a right way and a wrong way to say certain things, and that distinction is very clear cut.
I'm looking at you, guy who insists it's "Missour-UH" even though THAT'S A FREAKIN' "I" AT THE END!

Plush Wine Company’s main function is to introduce oenophiles to the luxury of Oregon’s Willamette Valley and more specifically, Willamette Valley Pinot Noir. We craft premium wines year in and year out, knowing the wines we make will express the unique terroir of our selected vineyard sites throughout the Willamette Valley, Oregon.
Growing
Plush Wine Company knows that the first place to begin is in the vineyard. Every quality of the vineyard is important, from the optimum sun exposure and annual rainfall to the low-fertility and well-drained soils. Each quality provides its own uniqueness to the grapes and is vital in producing a great product. These qualities can be truly appreciated through our hand-crafted wines.
Harvesting
Once the grapes have reached their optimum ripeness, they are harvested in the cool morning hours. They are picked by hand and placed into bins in order to avoid bruising and premature crushing of the fruit. They are transported from the selected vineyards, to the winery, where they are then hand-sorted prior to being de-stemmed just before entering the fermenters.
Fermentation/ Winemaking
After the grapes go into the fermentation vessels, the temperature is lowered using specially designed cooling jackets. Here, the grapes are allowed to "soak" for several days. Afterward, the temperature is raised and fermentation of the sugars begins and continues for approximately 7-10 days. Following fermentation, the wine is allowed to remain in contact with the skins for additional time in order to extract more color and flavor from the skins. This process is called maceration. Following maceration the wine is drained off of the skins and it is racked to empty French oak barrels. Here the wine is aged.
Cellaring
Plush Wine Company uses French oak barrels for cellaring its wines accompanied by a few stainless steel barrels to preserve the brightness of the fruit. How much new French oak the wine will be exposed to will vary depending on the how the wine is destined to be bottled. Reserve wines will typically be introduced to more new French oak. Other wines will require lower amounts depending on the style and variety of the wine. Ultimately, the winemaking team will regularly taste the wines in barrel to monitor the development. It is in the final steps that it is determined which lots will be selected for our Reserve blend.
