2022 Chardonnay Estate
The Estate Chardonnay is meticulously crafted with a focus on creating a complex, savory, and elegantly restrained expression of Chardonnay. The barrels used for this wine are selected for their natural acidity, persistence, and concentration. Capturing the energy of our precipitous Eola-Amity Hills vineyard, the final blend wraps brilliant, high-toned acid with rich and textured layers of oak to create a harmonious and profound example of Chardonnay.

Vintage Notes
The 2022 vintage was a rollercoaster of a season. It began with a frost event that
affected many parts of the Willamette Valley. Our Estate was spared on account of
our later-than-average budburst date, but most feared the loss of their entire crop.
Thankfully, ample spring rains followed and contributed to bountiful yields across
the Valley. We were then graced with one of the longest seasons in over a decade,
one that lasted well into October with sunshine and 80 days without rain. It was an
astonishing vintage and a winemaker’s dream.
