Loop De Loop, Wallflower Project Chillable Red, 2022
is backordered and will ship as soon as it is back in stock.
The Wallflower Project Chillable Red is a playful, low-intervention bottling from Loop de Loop, a small, family-run winery based in the Columbia Gorge AVA. Known for their thoughtful, hands-off approach, Loop de Loop focuses on cool-climate vineyards and natural winemaking with an eye toward freshness and drinkability.
The 2022 vintage is a blend of Syrah, Cab Franc, and sometimes other red varieties depending on the year, sourced from sustainably or organically farmed vineyards in the Gorge. Fermentation is typically whole-cluster and carbonic or semi-carbonic, followed by aging in neutral vessels, and bottling with minimal sulfur.
This is a red that drinks like a dark rosé: light-bodied, low-alcohol, and bursting with cranberry, cherry skin, herbs, and a hint of pepper. There's just enough grip to keep it grounded, but the vibe is all about refreshment. Serve it chilled and pair with a sunny patio, grilled veggies, or bánh mì.
