WILLAMETTE VALLEY WINEMAKER DINNER WITH LONESOME ROCK VINEYARDS & DANNY KLIEMAN
| | | |
Five courses thoughtfully paired with Pinot Noir & Chardonnay from Lonesome Rock Vineyards
Join us for a delicious five course dinner as we welcome home Chicago’s own, beloved Danny Klieman of Lonesome Rock Vineyards. Enjoy the always charming & enthusiastic stories from Danny about his home and vineyard nestled in Oregon’s Yamhill County, where they produce some of the finest Chardonnay and Pinot Noir in the state. |
The Duck Inn is thrilled to present our first wine dinner with our dear friends, the Klieman family. |
ABOUT LONESOME ROCK
Lonesome Rock’s limited-production Pinot Noir and Chardonnay begin with place — high in the hills west of Carlton, Oregon. |
Farmed organically and sustainably with 270 degrees of exposure, including an uncommon, northerly-facing parcel, the well-drained hillsides at Lonesome Rock consist of the cool volcanic soils found in the Dundee Hills. Climbing from 575 to 765 ft., the 15-acre vineyard is planted to chardonnay, pinot meunier, and 5 different heritage, dijon, and exotic clones of pinot noir. |
Mountains to the north and west protect from threatening precipitation during the growing season by creating a “rain shadow,” while the elevation and coastal influences result in a 45-degree difference between day and nighttime temperatures during the critical weeks of ripening. These unique micro-climatic conditions work together, allowing their naturally low-yielding vineyard to ripen incrementally. |
THE MENU
•
COPPER RIVER SALMON CRUDO
capers • dijon • smoked salt cured duck egg yolk • shrimp chips |
