The Wine

Bazm is an ancient Persian word meaning “celebration”: to consume wine and food while enjoying music and dance. We dedicate this wine to the Willamette: The Pinot Noir Auction gathering to showcase the unique styles that make Oregon wines so special. The fruit for this wine comes from Momtazi Vineyard, which is a Demeter-Certified Biodynamic® vineyard. We believe taking care of the environment will portray exceptional quality in the wines from our estate. Maysara’s wine is produced with low-impact winemaking processes, without the use of added commercial products and less than 100 ppm total sulfites per bottle.

Learn more about this lot during Preview Week, when winemaker Tahmiene Momtazi will present this wine during a virtual tasting session on July 28. Register here.

The Winery

Maysara Winery and Momtazi Vineyard are owned and operated by the Momtazi Family in McMinnville, Oregon. Maysara Winery—which translates to “house of wine,” a nod to their Persian heritage—is deeply rooted in cultural traditions, respect for the land and a commitment to biodynamic farming and winemaking practices. In 1997, the family purchased 496 of the now 532 acres of an abandoned wheat farm just south of their home and started their new life in the foothills of the McMinnville AVA. Today, the winery produces a range of Pinot noirs, Pinot blanc, Pinot gris and Riesling.
