A barrel blend, the 2023 Chardonnay Reverie was matured in 88% new French oak. It has arresting aromas of flint and crème brûlée that give way to white peach, apricot and pastry. The full-bodied palate has a satiny texture and highly concentrated flavors, delivering waves of ripe fruit, spice and floral perfume. It’s balanced by vibrant acidity and has a very long, nuanced finish. Wine Advocate 95
Witness Wines is a new project from managing partner Matt Felton and consulting winemaker Alban Debeaulieu. Grapes are sourced from the Witness Tree Vineyard in the Eola-Amity Hills, first planted to vines in 1982. Witness Tree fruit is widely sourced by winemakers in the Willamette Valley, and iterations can be found from Walter Scott, Bergstrom, Nicolas-Jay and others. “Since we make very little wine ourselves, we want to put these wines on the map,” Felton explains. The goal of Witness Wines, he says, “is to showcase the character of the vineyard, make wines of the highest caliber and express site first and foremost.” 2022 was the brand’s first vintage of Pinot Noir, while the 2023s in this report represent their first release of Chardonnay.
