RATINGS

93James Suckling

...offers a fresh and flinty nose with lightly spiced, fresh-apple and pear aromas that lead to a very crisp, fresh and attractive palate that delivers a succulent, sleek and fresh impression from start to finish.

92Vinous / IWC

...aromas of tangerine, white peach, pear and tarragon. Sappy and concentrated but lively as well, offering juicy citrus and orchard fruit flavors that pick up a floral nuance as the wine opens up. A gingery flourish adds spicy cut to the long, smoky, lees-tinged finish, which leaves behind sweet butter and honey notes.

92Wine Enthusiast

Full bodied with plush, round fruit flavors of Meyer lemon, pink grapefruit, apple and tangerine...new oak adds a lightly toasty note, but it's the palate-refreshing acidity that lets the fruit shine through.

91Wine Spectator

Refined and elegantly focused, with floral apple and toasted spice flavors that build richness on the finish.

REGION

United States, Oregon, Willamette Valley, Dundee Hills

Dundee Hills AVA is in Yamhill County, and it is entirely contained within the Willamette Valley AVA, Oregon’s best known appellation. Dundee Hills is about 30 miles southwest of Portland, and has 1,300 vineyard acres. It was awarded AVA status in 2004 and, like much of Oregon, is known for Pinot Noir. Several of Oregon’s 20th century wine pioneers established their vineyards and wineries in Dundee Hills, adding to its status as a region long-recognized for producing high quality, iconic Oregon wines. Eyrie Vineyards, Erath Winery and Sokol Blosser remain some of Oregon’s most celebrated producers, and all were founded in what is now Dundee Hills in the late 1960s and early 1970s.

TYPE

White Wine, Chardonnay

This white variety originated in Burgundy, but is now grown around the world. Its flexibility to thrive in many regions translates to wide flavor profile in the market. Chardonnay is commonly used in making Champagne and sparkling wines.
