Lingua Franca Avni Chardonnay Willamette Valley 2021

Willamette Valley, in western Oregon, is one of the United States’ most important non-Californian AVAs. From the city of Portland, it stretches southwards for 120 miles (190km) down the eponymous river valley, covering some 3.4 million acres (1.3 million ha) of land.

The fertile Willamette Valley has been the most densely populated area of Oregon since pioneers began to settle in the early 19th Century. Viticulture began in earnest here in the late 1960s, when students from the University of California’s Davis campus looked north for inspiration, finding the climate in California unsuitable for Pinot Noir.

In 1979, a Willamette Valley Pinot Noir beat a host of wines from Burgundy to take a place in the top three at the Gault-Millau French Wine Olympiads. This made the world take notice of Oregon and the Willamette Valley; vineyard plantings and international interest have increased steadily ever since.
