Evening Land, Chardonnay Summum Seven Springs Estate Eola-Amity Hills 2018
Variety: Chardonnay
Evening Land's Seven Springs Vineyard is one of the oldest and most sought-after sites in the Willamette Valley. Al MacDonald planted the vines in 1984 next to the Douglas fir trees that surround the northern section of the property. The vineyard has always been dry-farmed and is positioned to capture the cold air from the Pacific that enters the valley through the Van Duzer Corridor, just to the north of the appellation. Rajat Parr and Sashi Moorman are two of the top names in the wine world today, and recently they obtained 100% control of the site. With their vigilant oversight and visionary stance on winemaking, the quality of these wines continues to elevate.
Summum is the name of just fourteen rows of vines located in the middle of the Seven Springs Vineyard. With its rich volcanic soils and site location, it is the best that the vineyard has to offer. The wine’s aging takes place between new puncheon barrels and stainless steel.
