WILLAMETTE VALLEY CHARDONNAY

If you’ve been hearing more about Willamette Valley Chardonnay, you’re not alone. Long celebrated for Pinot noir, our region is also earning well-deserved recognition for Chardonnay that is every bit as compelling—both from critics and from wine lovers discovering it for themselves.

Often called a “winemaker’s grape,” Chardonnay is remarkably versatile, reflecting both place and technique. Around the world, it ranges from bright and mineral-driven to rich and oak-influenced. In the Willamette Valley, our cool climate and thoughtful craftsmanship strike a beautiful balance: vibrant acidity, layered texture, and nuanced complexity, with freshness always at the forefront. The result is a style that feels refined, expressive, and distinctly of this place.
