Haarmeyer Wine Cellars Cresci Chenin Blanc Cabernet Sauvignon Picking for our Willamette ValleyMade from Lodis Borden Ranch vineyards planted on quartz and granite, this Chenin Blanc is foot crushed, fermented in puncheons, aged 11 months on lees, and bottled unfiltered. The nose offers apple, melon, orange blossom, and honeysuckle. A rich yet lively palate unfolds with creamy lees texture, orchard fruit, bright citrus, and a backbone of fresh acidity. It finishes energetic and layered, reflecting its old vine origins and textured vinification
