2022 Lola Chardonnay

"Lola" is named for Daniel & Helen Ferrelli’s granddaughter.

WINEMAKING NOTES

100% Chardonnay

Sourced from one of Washington’s newest AVAs, Lola combines old-world elegance with new-world innovation. The wine is natively fermented to highlight the unique terroir, featuring restrained oak influence that allows the pure character of the grapes to shine. It is truly a standout among domestic Chardonnays.

TASTING NOTES

Connor Lee Vineyard shines in this Chardonnay, offering an inviting nose with hints of caramel and butterscotch. The mouthfeel is exceptionally round and creamy, maintaining the vibrant fruit character typical of Chardonnay. Subtle notes of pineapple and wet rock/flint add depth, while the finish is long and nuanced, with a lingering touch of freshly baked goods and toast.

VINEYARD

Connor Lee Vineyard is situated on sandy soils on the east edge of the Wahluke Slope in the Columbia Valley AVA. The Vineyard is a unique site for Chardonnay, as less wind pressure and heat allow for extended hang times, which results in a richer, more complex wine.
