Vineyard and Terroir

The 2023 Reserve Chardonnay is a beautifully balanced blend sourced from two exceptional sites: 57% from Reyna Vineyard in the cool-climate region of Wenatchee and 43% from Oasis Vineyard, located just west of the Columbia River in the Columbia Valley. Oasis Vineyard’s North-to-South row orientation ensures even sun exposure, promoting optimal ripening and vibrant fruit character. Its sandy loam soils and long sunlit days enhance acidity and rich fruit concentration. With its cooler climate, Reyna Vineyard brings freshness, crispness, and mineral-driven complexity, creating a Chardonnay with exceptional balance and elegance.
 

Production

This Reserve Chardonnay was crafted to highlight vibrant fruit expression and refined texture. A portion of the wine underwent fermentation in stainless steel to preserve fresh aromatics, while the remainder was barrel fermented and aged to add subtle vanilla and soft, creamy notes. Careful aging and blending created a wine that balances bright acidity with a smooth, luxurious mouthfeel and a lingering, citrus-zested finish.
 

Tasting Notes

This Chardonnay shines with a brilliant golden color and opens with inviting aromas of starfruit, pink grapefruit, green apple, and delicate stone fruit. Hints of vanilla and subtle oak add warmth and complexity. On the palate, bright citrus flavors of lemon zest and grapefruit are balanced by a smooth, buttery texture and refreshing acidity. The finish is long and clean, with lingering notes of zested citrus and a touch of creamy vanilla. Elegant and expressive, this wine is perfect for pairing with seafood, roasted chicken, or creamy pasta dishes, and equally delightful on its own.
