Housed in a fully modern winemaking facility in Dundee, Oregon, Voix de la Vigne wines are made by French-born winemaker Brian Irvine. The wines are crafted to express the purity of each grape variety. These are elegant wines, with no use of new oak, and relatively low alcohol levels. The grapes are sourced from a variety of vineyard sites from both volcanic and sedimentary soils. These vineyards are under the viticultural control of Brian Irvine and his team.
Voix de la Vigne wines are dressed up to evoke classics from the old world. The label is not only pleasing to the eye, but serves also as an indication of what the buyer can expect from the wine. The intent is to ‘speak’ to the wine buyer who is interested in wine of elegance and finesse- the hallmark of the Voix de la Vigne brand.
2023 Vintage Summary
The season began with a mild winter, followed by a cool and wet spring. These conditions delayed bud break and flowering, but the moisture replenished soil water
reserves, beneficial for the vines as the season progressed. Summer brought warm temperatures and dry weather, which allowed for steady vine growth and fruit development. The warm, dry summer helped to maintain healthy grape clusters and reduce disease pressure. As harvest approached, the weather remained favorable, with warm days and cool nights, which are ideal for developing the balanced acidity and complex flavors characteristic of Willamette Valley wines.
Vinification
A combination of destemmed and whole cluster pressed grapes. Portions of the blend saw 24 hours of skin contact. Fermented at cool temperatures and aged in a combo of small stainless steel vessels and neutral French oak barrels.

Post-bud-break, a cold front brought record-low temperatures and frost into the Willamette Valley, leaving many to wonder if there would be any crop to harvest in Fall. May and June followed with unusually cool temperatures, furthering the worry of low yields or a complete loss.

Ideal conditions continued into October, allowing the fruit extra weeks of hangtime not typically seen in recent
vintages.
