Tasting Note

You'll find delicate tropical notes of pineapple and guava mixed with lemon curd and hints of oak, lemongrass, and a long, seamless finish.

How we make our Chardonnay

Our Willamette Valley Chardonnay is sourced from three local vineyards, hand-picked, and then gently pressed. 15% of the wine is barrel fermented and aged in large French oak barrels for 9 months (35% new). The remaining 85% is fermented in stainless steel tanks. Both portions go through full malo-lactic fermentation to help soften the acidity and provide an elegant texture.

The 2019 Vintage

After a warm May and a healthy, early fruit-set, the summer ended cool with no threat of the sunburn or hazy, smoky skies seen in recent years. We expected to pick in early September, but weeks of unseasonably cool weather took us by surprise. Rather than rushing to pick too early, we waited patiently for concentrations and sugar levels to rise. Expect wines with a big ripe core of concentrated fruit and a bright, fresh profile.
