Adelsheim pioneered Dijon clone Chardonnay in Oregon, correctly guessing that the Burgundian grape would ripen better than the California (Wente) clones that were ubiquitous. CH is made with no oak, no malolactic fermentation, no residual sugar and no skin contact. In a way it's the anti-Chardonnay, but at the same time it is the purest style of Chardonnay. Bracing, fresh and zesty in the Euro mold, it's got flavors of melon, green apple and gooseberry.
