Description

Dijon clone. Freedom Hill Vineyard. Freedom Hill Vineyard is located in the foothills of the Coast Range, 10 miles SW of Salem, Oregon. During the day, warm air rises from the valley floor ripening the skins. At night, cool ocean breezes act to retain acidity. Planted on old sedimentary soils, the vines have a SW exposure at an elevation of 520 feet to 580 feet. The vines were planted in 1999 and 2006 with Dijon clones 76 and 548 in well drained, sedimentary clay loam. The grapes were whole cluster pressed. After settling, the juice was barrel fermented with indigenous yeasts. The wine completed malolactic fermentation naturally and was aged sur lees for eleven months entirely in used French oak barrels. Yield: 2.7 tons/acre. Bottled: September 2017. Picked: 9/8 to 9/14/16. Production: 1170 cases. Chardonnay from Freedom Hill Vineyard has a purity of fruit and a core of minerality that will complement a wide variety of white meat and vegetarian dishes with complex sauces and rich flavors. It will benefit from up to 8 years of bottled age. www.stinnocentwine.com. Facebook; Twitter; Instagram: (hashtag)stinnocentwine. Alcohol 14% by volume.
