White

The EGW (Extra Good White) is half Eola-Amity Hills Dijon clones and half old vine Wente clone Chardonnay from Chehalem Mountain. The Dijon clones are a barrel selection of the best of the Eola-Amity Hills fruit. The nose shows distinctly more reduction because the thicker skins of Wente clone Chardonnay provide a richer extraction of the phenolics that combine with the oxygen to create the reductive effect. The result is one of lovely intensity, with pronounced aromas of citrus peel, smoke, mineral, and white flowers. The texture is vibrant but not lacking in substance or depth. Truly top-notch Chardonnay.
