Juliette Chardonnay represents a full circle for winemaker Erin Nuccio. When he began making Haden Fig in 2008, his Chardonnay was aged only in stainless steel, with no malo-lactic fermentation. Through process, Erin learned he could make fresh and balanced Chardonnay that retained beautiful acidity while also having the textural enhancement from barrel aging. Now, all Haden Fig Chardonnay is done in barrel; Stupifyingly brilliant Chardonnay, this wine is proof that Erin is among the best Chardonnay-makers in Oregon. - Marcus
The winery: This vintage of Juliette was entirely sourced from Mahonia Vineyard in the un-official South Salem Hills. As is our practice with the Haden Fig Chardonnays, this was fermented in barrel without baronage and only racked when the selection was made between our Juliette and Willamette Valley designations after 10 months. The WV went to the blending tank and the Juliette was racked (dirty) into other neutral barrels.
This year, our experimentation with the Juliette included blending and holding it in tank for an extended period toward the end of its elevage. So, unlike previous iterations of Juliette, we racked it (clean) into a stainless-steel tank after 14 months where it rested for an additional 2 months. It’s delicious!
