The Story
Ken Wright Cellars Willamette Valley Chardonnay is a focused and elegant expression of the region, crafted to highlight the bright fruit and natural acidity of Oregon's cool-climate vineyards. Unlike many California counterparts, this wine is typically produced with minimal new oak to preserve its purity and mineral character. It offers an inviting bouquet of crisp green apple, white peach, and Meyer lemon, accented by delicate notes of white flowers and a hint of wet stone. On the palate, the wine is medium-bodied and well-balanced, featuring a clean, vibrant texture and a long, refreshing finish. It serves as a sophisticated example of the varietal's potential in the volcanic and sedimentary soils of the Willamette Valley.
