Our Chardonnay hails from a small, 2 acre parcel planted on a steep, south-west slope in 1999.  However, this estate designated bottling is only made in special vintages.  After a 3 year hiatus (since 2016), this 2019 version is a classic cool climate Chardonnay reflecting the best of this cool, classic vintage.  The vineyard was picked on two days, with 40% on the first day, reflecting more fresh, citrus attributes, and the balance picked 10 days later, allowing the fruit to develop more exotic, tropical characteristics and silkier texture.  This is a terrific example of the emerging style of Willamette Valley Chardonnay that combines the best of old world and new world traditions . Enjoy over the next 10 years with white fish dishes (especially halibut), fresh garden pesto, and goat cheese.
