Producer notes from Love & Squalor:

"In 2007 Portland Wine Company released 65 cases of wine. Now we make a few thousand and have our own facility. We’ve grown steadily and are eager to share our wines with you. With your friends. And with everyone you know on Facebook.

We start with the belief that wine needs to taste alive. The best way to ensure this is to let the grapes express themselves. We’re happily positioned in a new world, younger growing region so our wines won’t resemble what comes from Europe or California. Flexibility here is key, as conditions in the volatile Pacific Northwest change with each harvest. Just as wines vary per region, wines from the same region shouldn’t taste the same each year. We strive to present those with a unique personality, personality that includes authenticity (or, honesty) in each vibrant sip."
