RATINGS

93Wine Spectator

Seamless and refined, with floral pear and spice aromas and supple, layered Meyer lemon, stony mineral and blanched almond flavors that linger.

93Wine Enthusiast

...open and accessible, yet carries the structure to age gracefully. You'll find interesting threads of freshly picked herb, lemon oil, pimiento and olive supporting citrus and fresh apple fruit.

92The Wine Advocate

...offers pronounced notes of honeyed peaches, warm pineapple and ripe melon with hints of brioche, praline and crème brûlée. Medium to full-bodied, there is an appealing oiliness to the texture on the palate and tons of tropical fruit and savory layers, finishing with lingering spicy notes coming through.

92James Suckling

A ripe chardonnay that shows aromas of sliced cooked apple, lemon peel, dried flowers and hints of vanilla. Full body, creamy texture and crisp acidity.

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
