ON (Out of Necessity) Chardonnay 2022 is a testament to resilience and craftsmanship, born from a challenging vintage in Ribbon Ridge, Willamette Valley. The palate features bright notes of apple and lemon, complemented by subtle hints of toasted almonds, and finishes smooth and rounded. The 2022 growing season was marked by an untimely frost during bud break, resulting in limited yields and just three barrels of this exceptional wine. With only 50 cases produced, this rare offering exemplifies the dedication and ingenuity that defines the "Out of Necessity" ethos, blending tradition, innovation, and a profound respect for the land. A true reflection of Ribbon Ridge's potential for Grand Cru-style Chardonnay. Estate-grown and farmed organically, this Chardonnay showcases the unique terroir of marine sedimentary soils. Fermented and aged in 50% new French oak, it balances a dry, crisp structure with nuanced complexity.
