The Bishop Creek Chardonnay 2022 is a medium-bodied white wine from Oregon. The wine presents aromas of white grapefruit and flintiness, underpinned by characteristic minerality inherent to the high-elevation vineyards from which the grapes are sourced. The palate reveals a structured sensation akin to sweet lemon rind, complemented by almond and subtle marzipan notes. Energy from the acidity balances the richness of the texture, while lingering flavours of orchard fruit emerge alongside granular elements. Produced by Nicolas Jay, a collaboration between winemaking experts Jay Boberg and Burgundy`s Old World traditions, this wine offers depth built for careful maturation.

The 2022 Chardonnay Bishop Creek entices with a slightly tropical bouquet as confectionary spices give way to ripe mangos, peaches and hints of chamomile. It’s far more savory within. Silken and nearly creamy in feel, it displays ripe pit fruits and honeyed inner florals as a salty flourish adds intrigue toward the close. This leaves the palate drenched in primary concentration and crunchy mineral tones, finishing structured and spicy yet with a pretty inner sweetness. I’m loving the contrasting nature here. The Bishop Creek Vineyard was heavily affected by the frost, reducing yields in 2022 by around 60%.Eric Guido1st August 2024
