2022 Sigrid Chardonnay
Sigrid Chardonnay
Willamette Valley AVA
We believe strongly in the power and promise of Oregon Chardonnay. Sigrid Chardonnay is an homage to our Swedish grandmother whose spirit, grace, and strength inspired three generations of Bergström children. After harvesting each of our estate vineyards by hand, we ferment the fruit separately in small French oak barrels, where it undergoes full malolactic fermentation and aging sur lie for 18 months. Only then do we select the finest of these barrels for our Sigrid Chardonnay. In a bottle of Sigrid, you will find the layered textures, mineral structure, fresh citrus and stone-fruit flavors and floral aromas we hope will inspire you to continue following the Oregon renaissance of this noble white grape.
Winemaker Notes
The Queen of Chardonnays, from our oldest and finest vines in the Willamette Valley. Our 17th vintage of Sigrid Chardonnay has exotic aromas of freshly struck flint, Opal apples, honied graham, tarragon, white jasmine, buttered brioche, and vanilla bean. There is a mineral structure with lovely salinity. Broad and expansive with flavor and seamless texture. Rich with nectarines, pear, ginger custard, and toasted hazelnuts. Structured and creamy with a lovely balance of salinity. It is a harmonious wine with many glorious years ahead of it.
