    Product description

    This Chardonnay is crafted from a blend of Dijon, Wente, and Davis clones. Harvested in two phases, the first pick comes from the Phelps Creek estate, while the second is from higher-elevation vines, picked slightly later due to slower ripening. The grapes are whole-cluster pressed to preserve delicate flavors and fermented in 10% new French oak barrels to enhance texture. The wine undergoes bâtonnage and partial malolactic fermentation (around 50%) to add depth and a creamy mouthfeel. Aromas of ripe orchard fruit, with subtle hints of vanilla and toast from the oak. The palate is balanced, with flavors of pear, apple, and a touch of lemon curd, complemented by a smooth, rounded finish.

  • About the producer

    About the producer: Phelps Creek

    Robert (Bob) Morus grew up in the San Francisco Bay area during the mid 60’s and 70’s, just when California food and wine culture took root. Later as a professional aviator, he expanded his horizons and founded a small, family vineyard in Hood River, Oregon.
    After selling their early harvests to several notable producers in the nascent Oregon wine industry, Phelps Creek expanded their dreams into producing wine. The winery focuses on estate grown Pinot Noir and Chardonnay varietals, annually producing 5,000 cases. Intensive vineyard care combined with the Burgundian winemaking talents of Alexandrine Roy, a fourth-generation winemaker from Gevrey-Chambertin produce stunning results and garners international acclaim.
