North Valley Vineyards 'Classic' Chardonnay

The fantastic word about Willamette Valley Chardonnay is well and truly out, with an array of producers confident that this grape will turn out to be the region’s calling card (yes, even over Pinot Noir). This North Valley Vineyards Chardonnay offering comes from longtime friend of the shop and New England native, James Cahill, who leverages his 25+ years of Oregon winemaking experience to produce the sleek, “stylish,” and Burgundian Chardonnay from an array of prized plots across the northern-most sections of the Willamette Valley. Driven by notes of white peach, lean citrus, and a crisp, long finish, this is an excellent offering for white Burgundy lovers and folks interested in seeing where some of the best in American wine is headed.
