Ermisch Cellars 2020 Chardonnay

PRODUCER INFO
  • After making wine at BODEGA CALLE in Argentina for more than a decade, but having built our import business from Oregon, we thought it important to finally try our hand with the challenging varietal of Pinot Noir and soon thereafter added this Willamette Valley Chardonnay.
ABOUT THE WINE
  • Our aim for this wine is to present a single facet of the Willamette Valley’s terroir in a standalone bottling of Amity hillside Chardonnay.
  • This is very much a hands-on project, Ermisch now does everything from crush to bottle at the new facility in Bend.
  • We like that Oregon is known as the most similar growing region in the USA to Burgundy. Thus, our wines will grow and develop in the bottle for many years and will always be wines made to enjoy with food.

TASTING NOTES

“It gives aromas of lemon cream, honeysuckle, toasted hazelnuts and brioche with ripe Red Delicious apple and a whiff of quince paste. Medium-bodied, it has a lovely creamy texture in the mouth, giving flavors of ripe orchard and stone fruits with floral, honey and nut accents. It has great juicy acidity and a long, layered finish.” – Erin Brooks, Wine Advocate.
