Coriolis Chardonnay 2019 presents a bright, pale straw color in the glass. The nose reveals notes of green apple, pear, and subtle citrus, alongside hints of vanilla and light oak from barrel aging. On the palate, the wine offers a medium body with crisp acidity, showcasing flavors of ripe stone fruit and a touch of minerality that lingers on the finish.

The 2019 vintage was notably cooler than usual, producing Chardonnay with strikingly vibrant, almost electric acidity. Harvested at the tail end of the season, well after the Pinot Noir, the grapes still achieved ideal ripeness, leading to a beautifully balanced and harmonious interplay between the acidity and the fruit`s natural sweetness. The winemaking process emphasizes minimal intervention, allowing the fruit`s natural characteristics to shine through. This Chardonnay is a testament to modern winemaking practices, balancing fruit-forward elements with a refined structure.

Antica Terra

Antica Terra

Antica Terra is the exciting project of ex-Sine Qua Non assistant winemaker Maggie Harrison in the Eola-Amity Hills of Oregon’s Willamette Valley. This large-scale investment project was established in a bid to create Oregon Pinot Noirs and Chardonnays (though Roussanne features too) that would stand shoulder to shoulder with the great wines in the world.

The primary focus is Pinot Noir, with no fewer than seven different Pinot Noir clones grown on the estate. Forensic attention is paid to the quality of the grapes which produce Antica Terra wines. Harrison’s winemaking, meanwhile, is very simple: natural ferments, manually punchdowns and foot-treading of the grapes, siphons and buckets used to transfer wine into barrel rather than electric pumps, no cold settling, no racking; then simply ageing on the lees before bottling without fining or filtration. The result is wines of exceptional quality and immense personality.
