Coulee Estate

“I love Willamette Valley Chardonnay. I have made Chardonnay from multiple other regions and you can’t fake how the varietal expresses itself here. All estate grown in the Eola-Amity Hills, from clone 548 which is slightly lower elevation on sedimentary soils, and Wente clone which is higher elevation on a south facing slope of volcanic soil. Aromas of peaches, lemon zest, hay bales, white flowers in the spring, and dried apricots. The wine itself is rich yet possesses great energy that leads to an ultra-long finish. This is a very pretty yet powerful wine with immense drinking pleasure.”

COULEE ESTATE

“Coulee Vineyard is a beautiful place and this wine highlights that beauty. Leading with blue fruit, Rainier cherries, cedar notes and perfect French oak complements. The wine is rounder than the Eola-Amity Hills Pinot Noir, with a beautiful mid-palate, and pillowy tannin structure. Grown mostly on the hillsides of Coulee in volcanic soil, with a small addition of extended maceration sedimentary soil. Pommard and Wadensvil clones. Drink now through 2038.”
