ABOUT LTD +
Chad and Bree Stock, a husband-and-wife team, have merged their superpowers and unique backgrounds in wine to create Ltd. +, which emerged as a collaboration with farmers in the area, inspired to develop a diverse and sustainable wine landscape. The wines, often made from less common grape varieties adopting innovative techniques, are changing preconceived notions of Oregon wine.
THE GOOD THINGS THEY DO
Where do we start? The whole project is geared toward ensuring Oregon remains a viable wine-growing region through climate change. Theyre not only encouraging growers to work with a more diverse spread of grapes that will weather the changing weather, but theyre also ensuring that seasonal workers are employed for longer because these alternative grapes ripen at different times. Theyre also active supporters of the BIPOC and LGBTQ+ communities in wine.
OUR FAVE THING ABOUT THIS WINE
We just love the rebellious history of this wine from the vines being smuggled into Oregon in a suitcase to how Bree has decided not to treat Grner with kid gloves, opting to foot-tread it (for 24 hours no less) instead. It makes for a wine with plenty of personality!
