*Traditionally, Chardonnay from Coelho Vineyard was named Apreciação, Portuguese for “appreciation.” Starting in 2016, when all three of our vineyards came online, we started naming our wines by the name of the vineyards from which they came.

Coelho Vineyard

Coelho Vineyard, about 35 acres of Missoula Flood sedimentary soil in the gently rolling hills south of Amity in the Van Duzer Corridor AVA, produces high acid wines with generous fruit. Planted to 13 rows of Dijon 76 Chardonnay, 5 rows of Pinot Gris, and the balance to 50/50 Pommard and Dijon 777 clones of Pinot Noir. Pinot Noir from this vineyard displays notes of red fruit and earth. Chardonnay reveals a lemon core while Pinot Gris always has a wonderful balance of lemon-lime acid and expressive fruit.
