Daedalus (day-de-lus) Cellars is a small family-owned winery. We source from some of the 
state’s best vineyards in the state and handle the fruit minimally and carefully to create 
balanced wines with complex fruit and elegant structure. Their refinement makes them 
natural partners for a wide range of foods and ensures their graceful maturation. 

 

Our 2007 Riesling is from 37-year-old vines in Maresh Vineyard in the Dundee Hills of the 
Willamette Valley. The fruit was cropped at around 2.5 tons per acre and was fermented in 
65% small stainless steel fermentation vessels and 35% neutral barrels. A combination of 
indigenous and commerical yeasts were chosen to emphasize varietal character, build body 
and bring out the complex aromas, and we preserved the crisp acidity by forestalling malo-
lactic fermentation. The wine was kept on the fermentation lees for around 140 days and 
stirred periodically to develop texture and complexity. 

 

The resulting wine is medium-bodied, intensely perfumed and vibrant. This wine should 
pair particularly well with seafood and light cream sauce or citrus sauces.
