Description
00 Wines ‘VGW’ Willamette Valley Chardonnay 2017
The 00 VGW (Very Good White) showcases the best of the Willamette Valley in a Chardonnay blend. Our “Black Chardonnay” production method results in a complex, savory Chardonnay, which has given 00 Wines an outstanding reputation for quality and attention to detail in the Willamette Valley after only two vintages of production. This annual blend is the signature Chardonnay entry into the world of 00 Wines. The 2016 VGW is a blend of single vineyard fermentations of Von Oehsen and Open Claim vineyards.
00 Wines has set out to produce the next great American Chardonnay here in the Willamette Valley. Using the premier cool climate Chardonnay fruit in the US, and time honored artisanal White Burgundy techniques, 00 Wines is creating collectable wines that grace the tables and cellars of clients in Hong Kong, New York City, Southern California, and London.
As a decades-long White Burgundy lover, 00 Wines owner Chris Hermann’s dream after many years of drinking wines from the greatest producers up and down the Cote d’Or and Chablis, is to produce extraordinarily intense, distinctive, Coche Dury like, statement Chardonnays in Oregon.
Every decision our experienced, international team makes, from oak forest sourcing for our barrel program, to our corks, to our vineyard block sourcing is intentional in our quest for the Holy Grail of Chardonnay.
