Cuvée Tan Fruit is the estate expression, including grapes from Dundee Hills, Eola Amity Hills, Yamhill Carlton and Chehalem Mountains. It is fermented by a mix of tank and barrel and aged for four months before bottling.
 Bone dry, chiselled and fresh, Cuvée Tan Fruit is an easy-going, delicious Chardonnay with a pretty nose of apricot, yellow orchard fruit, apples and river rock.
The 2021 Chardonnay Cuvée Tan Fruit comes from Dijon vines in the Maresh Vineyard, planted on a south-facing slope in 1991, plus a number of other sources around Willamette Valley. Bottled a few months earlier than the other Tan Fruit Chardonnays, its savory aromas explode from the glass: a core of peachy fruit is streaked with touches of candle smoke, matchstick, pie crust and floral tones. Medium-bodied, seamless and satiny, it flows effortlessly through the mouth with both depth of flavor and freshness. It has a pleasing touch of grip to anchor the long finish and feels like it has more to give as it unwinds in bottle over the next several years. Around 1,000 cases were made.
