Description
JamesSuckling.com Associate Editor and Taster Claire Nesbitt talks with Chris Hermann of 00 wines about microclimates in Oregon's Willamette Valley and the importance of aspect and elevation in producing pinot noir and chardonnay.Chris talks about the most important factor in the Willamette Valley when it comes to growing chardonnay: "The ultimate, critical factor is its super-cool climate," he said. "The Pacific Ocean is very cold off the coast of Oregon, so every night we're getting very cool breezes coming off, which is maintaining the freshness of the acidity."
