Detailed Info, Previous Vintage Notes, Reviews:

From the winery:

The three Yamhill County vineyards in this blend - Quarter Mile Lane Vineyard and Bryan Creek Vineyard in the Chehalem Mountains, and Stoller Vineyard in the Dundee Hills - are all on basaltic-origin, clay-loam soils. These soils are capable of holding enough water to support grapevines through our annual summer drought, thus insuring the development of intense fruit flavors.

WINEMAKING Gentle, whole-cluster pressing separated the juice from the skins of the Chardonnay grapes chosen for this wine. The juice was pumped to stainless steel tanks for a cool temperature fermentation process, and the wine was bottled in April of 2004. The style of winemaking we've chosen for the "CH" - cool temperature, stainless steel fermentation - leaves the pure fruit characteristics of the variety to shine through, showing you what Chardonnay tastes like without adornment from oak and malolactic (secondary) fermentation.
