WINE DESCRIPTION

Bergström Old Stones Chardonnay is a premium wine produced by Bergström Wines, a renowned winery in Oregon's Willamette Valley. The wine is made from grapes grown in the Old Stones vineyard, which is known for its unique soil composition and high elevation. The winemaking process involves a combination of traditional and modern techniques, including full malo-lactic conversion and extensive batonnage and lees work, resulting in a wine that is both opulent yet elegant. The style of the wine is characterized by its bright acidity, rich texture, and notes of citrus and stone fruit.

NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

This Bergström Old Stones Chardonnay is an outstanding example of Oregon Chardonnay.On the nose, it has aromas of ripe, stonefruits, and citrus, while on the palate it is full-bodied with a seductive creamy texture and complex notes of dairy and vanilla. Its round texture is balanced by a bright acidity that makes it an excellent food wine. Enjoy it with creamy seafood dishes, and truffled roast chicken. Enjoy now or over the next 10 years.

ORIGINS

Winery: Bergström

Region: Oregon

Oregon is a state in the Pacific Northwest region of the United States, located between Washington to the north and California to the south. It is known for its diverse landscape of forests, mountains, rivers, and high desert, and for its vibrant wine industry. Oregon's wine industry dates back to the mid-1800s, when the first vineyards were planted in the Willamette Valley. The region was largely forgotten until the 1960s, when a group of pioneering winemakers began to experiment with Pinot Noir and other cool-climate varieties. Since then, Oregon has become one of the most important wine regions in the United States, with over 500 wineries and more than 1,000 vineyards.
