About
Ovum Wines, founded in 2011 by Ksenija and John House, produces natural, low-intervention wines in Oregon using native ferments, no additions except SO2, and extended lees contact in neutral barrels, acacia, oak, cement eggs, and Austrian casks. They specialize in Riesling, Gewürztraminer, Muscat, and BIG SALT, sourcing fruit from like-minded farmers to highlight terroir and vintage. Their approach aims to create transparent, old-fashioned wines that reflect Oregon's diverse regions.
