Bergström Wines
Sigrid Chardonnay, Willamette Valley
Sigrid Chardonnay is an homage to their Swedish grandmother whose spirit, grace, and strength inspired three generations of Bergström children. After harvesting each of their estate vineyards by hand, they ferment the fruit separately in small French oak barrels, where it undergoes full malolactic fermentation and aging sur lie for 18 months. Only then do we select the finest of these barrels for our Sigrid Chardonnay. In a bottle of Sigrid, you will find the layered textures, mineral structure, fresh citrus and stone-fruit flavors and floral aromas we hope will inspire you to continue following the Oregon renaissance of this noble white grape.
Estate-sourced from Bergstrom, Le Pre du Col, and Silice Vineyards in Dundee Hills, Ribbon Ridge, and Chehalem Mountains AVAs. Chardonnay represents about 15% of the totaI Bergstrom estate acreage.

An elegantly floral, aromatic perfume of tropical blossoms, honeysuckle, herbal tea infusion, Meyer lemon, and a distinctly Oregonian note of hazelnuts. This wine has wonderful viscosity with citrus (lemon, grapefruit, mandarin, orange), white tea, and mint flavors, with good concentration and sweetness. Very suave, silky, and weightless on the palate.

"A spectacular combination of richness and toasty depth that aligns with brilliant acidity and citrus and stone fruit flavors. Almonds, toast, Bosc pears, white peaches and a touch of honey. Nervy and fresh, but also mellow, complex and long in the finish. The grapes come from three of the family vineyards.."
