BOW & ARROW is a wine producer based in Portland, Oregon, USA.

OWNERS | Scott & Dana Frank founded the business in 2010 and focus on grape varieties found in Loire Valley rather than those found in Burgundy which is the usual focus for winemakers in this part of the Pacific Northwest.

ESTATE VINEYARDS | 2016 None.

GRAPE PURCHASES | They buy in grapes eg. Pinot Noir, Gamay, Cabernet Franc, and Melon de Bourgogne – all typical Loire Valley grapes. Only Willamette Valley fruit. Long-term relationships. We are a “scrappy negociant” Scott told me at the Real Wine Fair in Tobacco Dock 17-18th April 2016.
