Walter Scott, Chardonnay Koosah Vineyard, 2023

$93.00

Walter Scott is a small Willamette Valley winery focused on Chardonnay and Pinot Noir shaped by vineyard character, restrained winemaking, and the cool-climate conditions of western Oregon. Koosah Vineyard is located in the Eola-Amity Hills, where volcanic soils and the strong marine influence of the Van Duzer Corridor contribute freshness and structure. Farmed sustainably and vinified with native yeasts and careful oak aging, the wine reflects the precision of the site and Walter Scott’s focused, low-intervention approach.

The 2023 vintage is layered and intensely mineral, offering notes of lemon oil, green pear, white flowers, crushed stone, and subtle baking spice. The palate is concentrated yet tightly wound, balancing bright acidity with a deep, saline-driven core and a long, persistent finish. Focused and age-worthy, the wine captures the energy and detail that define top Chardonnay from the Eola-Amity Hills.

Varietal: Chardonnay
Appellation: Eola-Amity Hills, Willamette Valley, Oregon
Farming: Sustainably farmed
Style: White. Structured, mineral-driven, and age-worthy
