2022 Acrobat Oregon Chardonnay

The 2022 Acrobat Oregon Chardonnay is a fresh, approachable expression of Oregon’s cool-climate white wines, crafted to offer serious quality without the formality. Sourced from carefully selected vineyard sites across the state, it strikes a balance between vibrant fruit and subtle oak influence. This Chardonnay has become a go-to for drinkers who want an authentic taste of Oregon at a friendly price point, vintage after vintage.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, the 2022 Acrobat Oregon Chardonnay shows a bright, pale straw color with glints of green at the rim. The nose is inviting and expressive, offering aromas of ripe pear, crisp apple, citrus zest, and white peach, layered with hints of honeysuckle, vanilla cream, and a light touch of baking spice. On the palate, this Chardonnay is medium-bodied and lively, with juicy flavors of Golden Delicious apple, lemon curd, and stone fruit supported by refreshing acidity. A subtle creaminess and whisper of oak provide texture and roundness without overwhelming the fruit. The finish is clean and refreshing with a slight mineral lift, making it an easy wine to enjoy on its own or at the table. Best enjoyed within 3–5 years of the vintage to capture its fresh, fruit-driven character.

Production
Acrobat Chardonnay is crafted from vineyards across Oregon, benefiting from the state’s cool climate, long growing season, and diverse soils that range from volcanic basalt to marine sedimentary layers. Grapes are typically harvested at night or in the early morning to preserve acidity and freshness, then gently pressed to maintain purity of flavor. Fermentation takes place primarily in temperature-controlled stainless steel, with a portion sometimes seeing neutral oak to add texture and complexity without heavy oak flavors. The result is a carefully balanced wine that highlights Oregon’s natural brightness and clarity of fruit.

Food & Serving
This 2022 Oregon Chardonnay is a versatile partner at the table, pairing beautifully with grilled or roasted chicken, seared scallops, crab cakes, creamy pasta dishes, and soft to semi-soft cheeses like Brie, Camembert, or Gouda. It also works well with lighter vegetable-based dishes, such as roasted root vegetables, risotto, or herb-roasted squash. Serve chilled at around 8–10°C (46–50°F) for maximum freshness; if you prefer a bit more texture and aroma, let it warm slightly in the glass. Decanting is not necessary, but opening the bottle a few minutes before serving will allow the aromatics to open up nicely.

Producer
Acrobat is a brand created by the well-regarded King Estate Winery in Oregon, a pioneering family-owned producer known for its commitment to sustainable and organic farming practices. Based in the southern Willamette Valley, King Estate helped put Oregon on the global wine map, particularly for its elegant Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. Acrobat was developed to offer high-quality, approachable wines that still reflect Oregon’s distinctive terroir, and it has since gained a loyal following for its consistency, value, and honest expression of the region’s cool-climate style.
