2022 Quartz Acorn Vineyard Chardonnay

The Quartz Acorn Chardonnay is golden-hued with concentrated notes of ripe nectarines, guava, and limoncello. The palate displays the exclusive qualities that our Quartz Acorn Vineyard produces. With satisfying acidity, matched with a rounded mouthfeel and lingering salinity, this wine will age wonderfully for over ten years.

 

94 points James Suckling
Plenty of salted caramel with sliced cooked apples and hints of pineapple, both on the nose and palate. Medium- to full-bodied. Hints of flint and mineral. Flavorful and very long. Tangy. Vivid.
91 points Wine Spectator
Precise and tightly focused, with apple and lemon flavors highlighted by stony mineral and orange peel.

Production Notes
Sourced from the southeast slope of our Quartz Acorn Vineyard in Yamhill-Carlton, featuring the 95 & 76 clones. Our Chardonnay is sorted slowly by hand and pressed whole cluster, with no settling time before barreling down. 100% barrel fermented with native yeasts, undergoing full malolactic fermentation. Aged on lees for 11 months in 100% neutral French oak. Very limited selection of 2 puncheons, with only 92 cases produced.
