Description

The Chardonnay Dundee Hills AVA Iron Filbert by Domaine Roy & Fils is born in the heart of Oregon's wine region, a territory known for its temperate climate and rich volcanic soils, ideal for the high expression of this classic grape variety. Produced exclusively from Chardonnay grapes, this wine reflects a harmonious combination of freshness and complexity.

The long aging, partly in steel to preserve aromatic purity and partly in wood to add structure and depth, gives the wine delicate scents of Golden apple, ripe pear, and light buttery notes enriched by a pleasant minerality. On the palate, it stands out for its elegance, soft body, and a vibrant acidity that provides a clean and persistent finish.

Perfect paired with baked fish dishes, shellfish, and fresh cheeses, it represents an excellent example of the refinement of American Chardonnay in a distinctive version.

Winery history

Founded as a winemaking project by Marc‑André Roy and Jared Etzel, the winery has expanded by developing vineyards in the Dundee Hills area and at sites near Carlton/Yamhill‑Carlton. The property includes the Iron Filbert vineyard in the Dundee Hills; part of the land was originally used for hazelnut cultivation before being converted to a vineyard. In July 2023, the Marchesi Frescobaldi group announced the acquisition of Domaine Roy & Fils.
