Brick House, Ribbon Ridge Chardonnay "Cascadia" 2021 Willamette, Oregon

Doug Tunnell returned to his native Oregon in 1990, after 17 years as a foreign correspondent for CBS news, buying 40 acres of vineyard in the Chehalem appellation. Since that time Brick House has become synonymous with some of the highest quality Pinot Noir and Chardonnay produced. Organic from the very beginning, the purest expression of these grapes has been the one and only imperative. The Chardonnay is redolent of white flowers, Gravenstein apples and spice. It is perfectly balanced, penetrating and powerful on the palate and long on the finish. One could not ask for a more satisfying Chardonnay.
