2019 Estate Chardonnay Magnum
Succulent lemon curd and layers of creamy brioche frame the nose of this classic Oregon Chardonnay, which is puncuated by floral delicacy (orange blossom and honeysuckle spring to mind) and the gentle perfume of white stonefruit. Peach and pear are vibrant in the mouth and the fruity forward palate give way to an elegant, lingering finish enhanced by a kiss of toasty oak. Dijon clone 96 & 76. 10 months in barrel, 13% alc. 140 cases produced.

LACHINI VINEYARDS / Chehalem Mountains AVA
Ron and Marianne Lachini
From the amazing site on Calkins lane, we get a block of Pommard and 115. Ron and his crew farm this site using holistic Biodynamic treatments. Lachini vineyard is a warm site planted on sedimentary soils that are quick- draining. The wines from this site show lots of spice and earth with old world character. We love fruit from this road having first bought property here in 1998. Ron and Marianne continue to be good friends and we are anticipating a single vineyard bottling from this vineyard.
