Electric pink in color with aromas of juicy strawberry, watermelon and peach and accented by floral honeysuckle. Dry with a medium-body, round mouthfeel and vibrant palate of nectarine, red cherry, tangerine, tropical papaya and vanilla creme. The bright acidity creates a lively and clean finish.
This classic "Willamette Valley style" Chardonnay is sourced from our three Estate vineyards — the original planting by Founder Jim Bernau in the Salem Hills, Tualatin Estate planted by Oregon wine pioneer Bill Fuller in the foothills of the Coastal Range and Elton planted by Dick and Betty O'Brien in the Eola-Amity Hills.
Crafted by Oregon wine pioneer Bill Fuller, Founder of Tualatin Estate Vineyard, using his favorite blocks and traditional techniques. Light gold in color, the wine opens with aromas of lemon, toasted pineapple, pine and spice. Rich and supple in texture, flavors of golden apple, vanilla, brown sugar and brioche lift from the palate and flow into a lingering, round finish.
Elegant aromas of lemon cream pie, buttered pastry, mandarin orange and vanilla emerge from the glass and move into a creamy and rich palate expressing flavors of orange blossom, florals and butterscotch. The medium bodied wine is refined with balancing acidity and length of the finish that extends far beyond the sip.
Fine bubbles elevate an appealing bouquet of mandarin orange, lemon, brioche and bergamot. Attractive green apple, apricot and mineral notes meld seamlessly on the palate with hazelnut and pastry flavors gained from extended sur lie aging. The creamy and elegant structure combined with bright acidity carry these flavors through the lingering vibrant finish.
Lemon in color, the wine opens with aromas of pear, lychee and golden apple on the nose. A medium-bodied, round mid-palate with flavors that mirror aromas with the addition of white florals and chamomile is resolved by balancing acidity for a long-lingering finish.
