2019 Sol et Soleil Chardonnay

2019 Sol et Soleil Chardonnay

New to the J. Christopher range of wines, the "Sol et Soleil" Chardonnay was fermented in large (600-liter) oak casks, where it rested on the lees for nearly two years. The fruit was sourced from vineyards in two sub-AVAs of the Willamette Valley: our neighboring Compris Vineyard here in the Chehalem Mountains, and Yamhill Vineyard in the Yamhill-Carlton AVA. With a rich, lifted aroma and a lush, mineral-infused embrace of the palate, the wine celebrate the stony soils and sunny ripeness that Chardonnay can acheive in our corner of Oregon.

Production Notes

91 points – Wine Enthusiast

Done in a barrel fermented style. Comes on as soft and toasty, with a mix of rich apple, cream, butter and caramel. 

 

90 points – Wine Spectator

Polished and elegantly structured, with baked pear, toasty spice and jasmine blossom accents that glide on a long finish.
