Very aromatic, with notes of green apple skin, unripe peach and crushed rock. On the palate, it has a long, refreshing acid-driven finish. A unique wine, bathed in the sunshine of the Eola-Amity Hills. La Source Chardonnay is characterised by its richness and elegance. Only the bottom half of a 14-acre parcel of old Dijon clones is used. The soil is gravelly, iron-rich and volcanic. "Evening Land" is a symbol of the quest for the perfect garden. From the time of Greek mythology to the present day, Evening Land is synonymous with adventure and romance, which inevitably leads to the West Coast of the United States. Seven Springs Vineyards, located in the Eola-Amity Hills of Oregon's Willamette Valley, grows Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Gamay Noir on 80 acres (32 ha). Evening Land owns this vineyard, which is known as one of the best vineyards in Oregon and has been selected as one of the top 10 vineyards in the United States by Food & Wine magazine. It is also a special vineyard that is described as "one of the best vineyards in Oregon, producing grapes of consistent quality every year" by Wine Advocate magazine. Seven Springs, located on an east-facing slope, was planted in 1983 and the soil is Oregon's typical volcanic red soil. The ratio of young and old vines is very well balanced, and a wide variety of grapes are harvested from the plots with various microclimates. We produce complete estate wines from our own vineyards at Seven Springs, which are cultivated biodynamically. When Evening Land was first established, it became known as the first overseas winemaking project for Dominique Lafon of Comtes Lafon, a great Burgundy Mursault producer and one of the top five white wine producers in the world. Currently, Raja Parr, a well-known entrepreneur who heads the popular winery Domaine de la Cote in Santa Rita Hills, California, and Sashi Moorman, a talented winemaker, are in charge of the management and brewing of Evening Land. Under their influence, the wines have become very close to European style, and it is no exaggeration to say that Evening Land is now the most notable winery in Oregon.
