The Wichita Chapter of The American Institute of Wine & Food Presents Vino from Van
Duzer Vineyards February 9 • 7 p.m. Van Duzer Vineyards is the first in
the Willamette Valley to benefit from the cool Pacific breezes that flow
nightly through the Van Duzer Corridor to the interior of the valley.
The Pinot Noir and Pinot Gris planted on the vineyards in the foothills
of the Van Duzer Corridor flourish in the cool-weather growing
conditions where they develop a purity of fruit flavor, complexity and
pleasing balance. Located on a scenic hilltop amidst 82 acres of vines,
the family estate winery practices sustainable farming and has been
endorsed by internationally recognized LIVE (Low Impact Viticulture and
Enology) and Salmon Safe. Pinot Noir is Van Duzer’s signature
wine. A variety of Pinot Noir clonal varieties and microclimates allows
Van Duzer Vineyards to produce a multi-dimensional estate Pinot Noir and
a handful of limited-production Block Designates of singular
personality. Pinot Gris is Oregon’s other wine of note, a white wine
that Van Duzer Vineyards makes in a crisp, dry style particularly well
suited to a white wine. Tonight’s outstanding wines will be paired
with food especially selected by Sommelier John Michael & Chef Alan
Schmidt to complement the wines.
