DESCRIPTION
Archery Summit Dundee Hills Chardonnay 2021 comes from the unique volcanic terroirs of the Dundee Hills, in Oregon's Willamette Valley. This Chardonnay benefits from one month of aging in stainless steel tanks after a partial fermentation in oak barrels, preserving all the freshness and minerality of the terroir. The pH is 3.19 and the total acidity is 7.1 g/L. Archery Summit, founded in 1993 in the Willamette Valley, specializes in Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. Managed by Chris Mazepink and owned by the Crimson Wine Group, the estate covers 50 hectares distributed across the Dundee Hills and Ribbon Ridge terroirs. With demanding viticulture and organic practices, Archery Summit produces elegant and refined cuvées in a style inspired by Burgundy.
On the nose, notes of lime, fresh citrus, and flint. On the palate, the wine is both rich and delicate, with a long and refreshing finish. It pairs well with a chicken supreme with cream sauce or a mushroom risotto. Serve between 7 and 9°C. Aging potential of 5 years.
REGION
California
United States
The Sonoma Valley is an American wine region often seen as the cradle of Californian winemaking. The valley is the driest part of Sonoma County thanks to the shelter of the mountains. The region is regarded as the source of the finest Pinot Noir and Chardonnay in Northern California, which benefit from the warm, sunny climate.
Recommended for you:
This Oregon Chardonnay, fruity and slightly buttery with restraint, is very well made.
