Time The Revelator 🕰

Our ‘108’ Chardonnay comes from the own rooted and old vines at the Wirtz Vineyard. Chardonnay styles are as divisive as politics these days. The Oregon wine machine is back promoting the advantages of Chardonnay once again. This is good news. After many starts and stops with this grape over the years, Oregon Chardonnay is positioned to be a grape that gains national respect.
