2018 Chardonnay
SOLD OUT
Amaterra
Wolf Hill Vineyard | Eola-Amity Hills AVA | Willamette Valley
Old vines located on the southern end of the Eola-Amity Hills AVA with wide-spaced rows recalls another era of Oregon viticulture. This spacing allows a cooling coastal breeze to flow through the vineyard for a long growing season. Whole-cluster pressed and barrel fermented; this is an excellent example of a balanced style of Chardonnay. Aromatics are of lemon custard and ripe apple, with citrus fruit, marzipan, and a creaminess on the palate that balances the bright acidity.
