Winemaker Notes
This Chardonnay rocks! Golden delicious apples and a hint of melon are the impression left on the nose. A rich satin mouth-feel with pleasant acids lingers on the palate. Can you say Crème Brulee'? The flavors of vanilla, burnt caramel and hazelnut make this wine almost seem like dessert in a glass. Pair this wine with cream-based pasta sauces, pork tenderloin and fowl.

The Gordon Brothers vineyards were established in 1980. They have planted a total of 95 acres, consisting of 25 acres of Chardonnay, 21 acres of Cabernet Sauvignon, 20 acres of Merlot, 15 acres of Syrah, 14 acres of Sauvignon Blanc, and one acre of Gewurztraminer. The vineyards lie on a perfectly oriented south-facing slope ranging from an elevation of 600 to 682 feet above sea level, on the Snake River just above Ice Harbor Dam and the confluence of the Snake and Columbia Rivers in southeastern Washington. These mature vines are proving that the Gordon Brothers vineyard has a singular, superior micro-climate. Superb air drainage and all the favorable effects of river sites for grape growing are only two of the reasons that these are some of the most sought-after grapes and wines in the Northwest.
