Plaisance Ranch
Plaisance Ranch produces wines from Southern Oregon, a region known for its diverse microclimates and ability to ripen distinctive grape varieties. The winery's portfolio centers on less common cultivars: Mondeuse Noire, Mourvedre, and Carménère. Papa Joe's Private Stash Rouge Prestige, made from Mondeuse Noire, represents the winery's focus on this Savoyard varietal, which brings structure and dark fruit character to the region's terroir. Wava's Pick Ginet Rosé, crafted from Mourvedre, demonstrates the winery's range across styles. Papa Joe's Private Stash Carménère rounds out the core offerings, showcasing another Old World variety adapted to Southern Oregon's growing conditions. Both Wine Enthusiast and Wine Advocate have rated these wines, reflecting their technical merit and regional significance.
