Siduri, named for the Babylonian goddess of wine, specializes in cool-climate Pinot Noir from growing regions across California and Oregon. Our winemakers’ constant pursuit of Pinot perfection has led to long-standing relationships with top growers in premier appellations from Oregon’s Willamette Valley to California’s Santa Barbara County.
The Willamette Valley is well-established as a region that is ideally suited for Pinot Noir. However, its Burgundian partner Chardonnay has been steadily rising to prominence with its easy elegance and brightness. The terroir of the Willamette Valley is gracefully captured by the Chardonnay grape, and Siduri is thrilled to finally be releasing a wine that is the exact style of Chardonnay that we love to enjoy ourselves
The 2020 vintage of Siduri Willamette Valley Chardonnay is a blend of our favorite vineyards, predominately Maple Grove and Gran Moraine. The picking decisions were flavor-based and focused on brightness and acidity, with roundness and volume coming from rigorous barrel stirring, sur lie aging and malolactic fermentation. About 20% was fermented in stainless steel to preserve floral aromatics with a few of our favorite vineyard sections fermented in concrete eggs, adding finesse. The balance of the blend was barrel fermented and stirred twice a week during primary fermentation to continually build palate weight and roundness through the finish. The resulting wine is a harmonious blend that offers up freshness in spades, backed by mouthwatering acidity and richness that begs for another sip.
