A mineral-driven single vineyard Chardonnay from Oregon
- This wine offers lemon peel, apples, jasmine and nectarine on the nose, leading to flavours of toasted hazelnuts, honeysuckle and apricot.
- Sixteen months ageing in French oak barrels adds roundness as well as flavours of toast and vanilla.
- Oregon is renowned for producing wines similar in style to those in Burgundy, at arguably better value.
- Jacques Lardière, who led the winemaking team at the acclaimed Maison Louis Jadot in Burgundy for 42 years, decided to undertake a new challenge and hence Résonance was established- the first venture outside of Burgundy for the estate.
- Découverte is the second vineyard that the estate acquired, and is located in the rolling hills of Dundee Hills, in the heart of the Willamette Valley.

One of my favourite wines of 2024- a mineral driven, oaked Chardonnay from Oregon which is a wonderful alternative to Burgundy. I'll be cracking this open on Christmas day! - Lucy Harrison, OWC
