We make "Oregonian-style" Chardonnay with balanced acidity and flavor that sets itself apart from the styles made by our California friends.
Grapes from Stewart Vineyard in the Ribbon Ridge AVA were fermented in neutral French oak and stirred daily during fermentation to create texture and mouthfeel. Cool fermentation helped preserve the aromas. No malolactic fermentation to preserve the natural acidity of the wine.
Our winemaking techniques allow the Chardonnay to condition in bottle so that it ages gracefully.
