Ovum Ovum EZY Tgr Red 2023

Founded in 2011 by John House and Ksenija Kostic House, Ovum has quickly gained recognition for its dedication to minimal intervention winemaking and its commitment to crafting wines that are as natural and true to their origins as possible.
The philosophy at Ovum is rooted in the belief that great wine begins in the vineyard. John and Ksenija carefully source grapes from some of Oregon’s most distinctive and often lesser-known vineyard sites, many of which are farmed organically or biodynamically. Their focus is on aromatic white varietals such as Riesling, Gewürztraminer, and Muscat, which thrive in Oregon’s cool climate and diverse soils.
In the cellar, Ovum employs a hands-off approach, allowing the wines to ferment naturally with indigenous yeasts, often in neutral vessels such as stainless steel, concrete, or old oak barrels. The wines are aged on their lees to develop complexity and texture, and they are bottled with minimal sulphur and without fining or filtration.
