Chehalem Mountains AVA, Willamette Valley, OR; 2019

Grapes:

Chardonnay

Serving temp.

Chilled, and still good if you leave the bottle on the table during dinner or a movie…enjoy the transition.

Notes:

This is a killer chardonnay in my opinion. Why?  I like that I am tasting and feeling a weightier body with good acidity, and a slight creaminess, without the common oak barrel-bitter-butter that overwhelms so many chardonnays.  Founder and Winemaker Sam Parra is co-chairman of AHIVOY, and Oregon organization that strengthens the wine community by empowering vineyard stewards through education.  Serendipitously, his last name means grapevine!
