Tasting notes
The estate grown Chardonnay is fermented entirely in stainless steel with minimal manipulation and no secondary malolactic fermentation. It is a nod to Alfredo’s Italian roots and reflects the cooler climate of our northernmost Willamette Valley location. The nose offers white peach, lemon cream and a hint of herb. A crisp, vibrant fruit palate highlights tropical notes, citrus peel, and a mineral lift. The finish is mouthwatering and classic, distinctive of Chardonnay. Pairs well with oysters, Asian cuisine and pastas.
