  1. Pike Road - By Elk Cove Chardonnay 2020
    Pike Road - By Elk Cove Chardonnay 2020
    Green apples, spiced nectarines, fennel and subtle nougat aromas on the nose allude to its underlying ripeness. On the palate, clever winemaking adds flavours of brioche and hazelnuts, adding to the wine's texture and flavour profile. Earthy notes of wet rocks and white button mushrooms temper the spice and fruit. The finish is pulled together by a lovely line of saline phenolics which adds to the tension and energy.

  2. Evening Land Seven Springs Chardonnay 2021
    Evening Land Seven Springs Chardonnay 2021

    From Rajat Parr and Sashi Moorman of Sandhi fame. Fruit for this estate wine comes from Burgundian clones rooted into a rockier section of Seven Springs’ mid-slope, which they believe plays into the texture and final flavor profile of the wine. Whole cluster pressed indigenous yeast fermentation in once-used puncheons and barriques. Aged 6 months in neutral barrique and 1 month in stainless steel. Cold stabilized and lightly fined with bentonite clay before bottling

  3. Cristom Eola Amity Hills Chardonnay 2021
    Cristom Eola Amity Hills Chardonnay 2021

    Winemaker Daniel Estrin calls this wine one of tension and generosity. A blend of fruit from Eileen, Louise and the Paul Gerrie vineyards, this wine spends 11 months in barrel and four to five months in stainless steel. Effusive florals lead the aromatic display with a bruised apple note and stony petrichor. The palate is honeyed and shows that tension as well, with Pacific-inspired salinity, chamomile and beeswax carrying the finish. DECANTER

    What a pretty nose of white peaches, white lavender, hazelnuts and salted almonds. Full-bodied yet fresh, with sleek, salty layers. Excellent texture and complexity. JAMES SUCKLING

    The 2021 Chardonnay Eola-Amity Hills is fresh and floral with notes of quince, yellow flowers, and honeycomb. Medium-bodied, with ripe golden fruit on the palate and fresh underlying acidity to balance things out nicely, it's drinking well now and will drink well over the next 4-6 years. JEB DUNNUCK

  4. The Eyrie Vineyards Pinot Gris 2020
    The Eyrie Vineyards Pinot Gris 2020
    This is the bar by which many Willamette Valley producers measure their own Pinot Gris. Made with certified organic grapes, the wine’s pale moonbeam colour casts its glow on aromas of orange blossom honey, lemon verbena and a trace of vanilla. Flavours of honeycomb, lemon sorbet and white grapefruit complement a lithesome texture backed by acidity that packs a pop.
    MICHAEL ALBERTY, Decanter

    The low-yielding but high-quality 2020 season gave fruit of a density and concentration, Jason Lett categorising it alongside the greats of 1988 and 1998. Hand-picked fruit was destemmed, pressed and fermented in stainless steel tank before resting for 11 months on lees before bottling.

  5. Montinore Pinot Gris 2020
    Montinore Pinot Gris 2020
    Certified organic and made with biodynamic grapes, the aromas are redolent with fruit, with notes of apple, pear, star fruit and whiffs of pineapple. The palate is medium weight and bursting with fruit flavors. Lively acid keeps it all in focus. It’s flat-out delicious. WINE ENTHUSIAST

    An attractive nose of lemon, chamomile and thyme. Medium-bodied with zippy acidity. Green apple and white tea on the palate. Very bright. From biodynamically grown grapes with Demeter certification. Drink now. Screw cap. JAMES SUCKLING
