2022 Chehalem Estate Vineyard Pinot Blanc, Willamette Valley

Southwest of Portland, the Chehalem Mountains are an uplifted seabed of diverse sub-soils within a countryside of rolling elevations. In 2018, Bill Stoller of Stoller Family Estate in Dundee, Oregon acquired full ownership of the winery and vineyards.

Pale yellow in appearance with light reflections. At this early stage, the floral aromas are somewhat restrained, although there is an underlying fragrance of soft perfume. The palate is textured with fresh lemon peel and stone citrus fruits along with a background of racy acidity. It retains an elegant personality that is fresh and balanced.
