HIGHLY RECOMMENDED BY AVALON

Delish as usual, another hit out of the park from John Paul. Sumptuous is the best word to describe the scent - evocative of white flowers and minerals. A sip explodes with citrus, creamy lemon curd, white peach,and a hint of sweet thyme and rosemary. It expands in my mouth, silky and sleek. A $50 wine in an $19 bargain. It is declassified Abbey Ridge and Clos Electrique Chardonnay! - Jean

In the same way that you use a touch of citrus over so many foods to enhance their flavor, this Chardonnay can work to brighten whatever you're serving. It's also got some great texture, so don't confine it to sipping before dinner.

Probably most famous for his long and earthy Pinot Noir, John Paul Cameron is in fact one of Oregon's most talented producers of white wine. If you've ever had older vintages of his Clos Electrique Chardonnay, then you know what I'm talking about. If not, the Dundee Hills is the place to start.

2010 Vintage

I was going to save this for my next installment of The Oregon Chardonnay Crusader, but this puppy has started drinking so amazingly well that I couldn't wait. I've found this to be the best value Chardonnay from the Northwest. Every time I think about this wine, my mouth waters. One of our favorite meals is roasted chicken, butter leaf salad with a simple vinaigrette and a bottle of Cameron Chard. Say goodbye to oaksville and hello to bright, delicious Chardonnay. - Marcus

2009 Vintage Tasting Notes

Undoubtedly one of the best Chardonnays made in Oregon. "Wow" was the least expressive comment at Avalon when John Paul poured it for us at the store. OMG and "whoa nellie" don't do it justice. It's made with fruit from Abbey Ridge Vineyard and Cameron's estate vineyard, Clos Electrique.

Barrel-fermented Chardonnay emanating from old, distinguished vineyards in the Dundee Hills (Abbey Ridge and Clos Electrique). The wine was left on the yeast lies for a full year prior to bottling. Ripe apple and vanilla aromatics with a bit of herbs de Provence typify this wine. - John Paul
