Ramato means copper in Italian, the traditional color you get when Pinot Grigio is left on its skins before pressing, a northeastern Italian style that Cameron makes in Oregon's Dundee Hills. Here the grapes macerate on their skins for just a few hours, picking up that distinctive copper-orange hue and a lightly tannic grip you don't get from standard white Pinot Grigio. Fermented and aged in neutral oak from dry-farmed, non-irrigated fruit, it's a wine to put with food rather than sip alone. A delicious, low-stakes way into skin-contact wine from a small family operation that does just a few thousand cases a year.
