About Drouhin Oregon Roserock (V’24)

    • Roserock is an extraordinary vineyard at the southern tip of the Eola-Amity Hills, in Oregon’s Willamette Valley.
    • Ancient volcanic soils, an ideal elevation range and the unique cooling effect of the Van Duzer corridor produce classic cool-climate Pinot Noir and Chardonnay.
    • Roserock is LIVE-certified sustainable

About Our Eola-Amity Hills Chardonnay

    • Our Roserock Chardonnay brings together the estate’s three Chardonnay blocks, which are handpicked and sorted.
    • The Chardonnay is pressed immediately, and sent in equal parts to tank and barrel.
    • Once malolactic fermentation is complete, Véronique assembles the two portions into her final cuvée.

The 2024 Vintage

    • A cool spring in 2024 delayed the start of the growing season, but warm, dry conditions through summer and fall created the perfect setting for an exceptional vintage.

    • The fruit ripened beautifully, with pristine acidity and minimal disease pressure.

    • Véronique already sees 2024 as a remarkable year, defined by vibrancy and balance.

Véronique’s Tasting Notes

    • Picture a sun-dappled vineyard on a breezy hillside, where cool Pacific air meets the bright fruit of the Eola–Amity Hills.

    • That sets the stage for our 2024 Roserock Chardonnay.

    • Aromas of pear, citrus blossom, and white peach open to notes of honeyed nectarine, crushed seashell, and a hint of cream.

    • The palate is pure and vibrant, layered with lime and yuzu, leading to a long, elegant finish.
