90pts Jeb Dunnuck
A fruity and floral wine on opening, the 2023 Chardonnay Willamette Valley leads with peach, powdery flowers, preserved lemon, and saline. Juicy and medium-bodied, it’s a straightforward and approachable Chardonnay, with a light savory touch and hints of tarragon. Drink over the near term.

Refined and well-propor- tioned, with expressive flavors of apple and lemon accented by cinnamon and spice tones.
Winemaker Notes
A true expression of the Willamette Valley, and a partner to Penner-Ash's Willamette Valley Pinot Noir. This wine is driven by bright acidity overlaid on top of a solid foundation of fruit, sourced from premier sites across the region to incorporate the unique terroirs of the region's sub-AVAs.
