Wente Clone

2022 Dundee Hills Chardonnay

The cool climate of the Dundee Hills region contributes to the refreshing crispness of the wine, perfectly balancing the richness of the Chardonnay varietal. This vintage is a true testament to the artistry and skill of winemaking in the renowned Dundee Hills region.

Region:

Willamette Valley

The Willamette Valley is understandably most often associated with Pinot Noir. The cool-climate region has a unique relationship to this most delicate (and temperamental!) red wine grape. Lying on the same latitude as Burgundy in France, the Willamette Valley enjoys the perfect balance of sunshine and rain, proximity to the Pacific Ocean and protection on either side by the Coast Range and the Cascade Mountains. Along its 100 miles, the Willamette Valley boasts many distinct terroirs, so among its many brightly fruity, elegantly structured and blissfully fragrant Pinots, you'll also find exceptional Pinot Gris, Chardonnay and Riesling.
