2017 Spirit Hill Vineyard Blanc de Blancs

This radiant Blanc de Blancs comes from our oldest Chardonnay plantings at Spirit Hill Vineyard in the Eola-Amity Hills AVA. Located at an elevation of 750 feet, on a windy, north-facing section of the vineyard, these beautifully mature vines have yielded a vivid and energetic Blanc de Blancs with enticing layers of lemon cream, spring floral blossoms, oyster shell minerality and saline-driven length and precision. Aged on the lees for five years before disgorgement, one might consider this to be a Baby Extended Tirage.
