Bergstrom Old Stones Chardonnay 08
Bergstrom Old Stones Chardonnay 08 -
San Francisco Chronicle: Josh Bergstrom's way with Pinot is well known to us, but his Chardonnay is a more recent happening. This second vintage of Old Stones is a dazzler, serving up a lot of nuance for the price. It's a slightly flashy style, sure, but it also hits on all cylinders, starting with a subtle oak presence on the nose, accented by heather and vanilla bean scents. The flavors have a certain integrity to them; they hold together just so, marked by a beautiful mango and yuzu bite, and mineral edge and integrity.
Portland Monthly Magazine recently listed this wine as the 2nd best value wine for Oregon! "One of the best chardonnays ever made in Oregon, this is truly a top value. Quite long, intense pear flavors, with a judicious use of oak barrels."
