2021 Division Wine Co. “Un” Chardonnay, Willamette Valley, Oregon, USAABOUT THIS WINE The 2019 vintage was beautifully reminiscent of the classic vintages of northern Europe. After a relatively cool and humid summer by Oregon standards, some nice dry weather came in time for veraison with mild to cool temperatures during the day and cool to cold at nights. This extended the growing season well into October, making even us cool climate lovers bite our nails wondering if we would reach optimal ripeness! ABOUT THIS
