Franchere Wine Company has been producing adventurous, balanced, and thoughtfully crafted wines since 2013 using native yeasts, without temperature-controlled tanks, filtration, or fancy equipment. They focus on Pinot family grapes alongside less common Willamette Valley varieties like Grüner Veltliner, Blaufränkisch, Ehrenfelser, and Kerner. A new addition to their portfolio is the 2025 The Rosé, an all-estate blend of 86% Pinot Noir, 10% Gamay, and 4% Gewürztraminer featuring fresh berries, cherries, melon, and slate minerality.
