From the producer
Ownership and the INOX method
Chehalem says Bill Stoller joined as co-owner in 1993 and became sole owner in early 2018, operating under Stoller Wine Group. Chehalem's own INOX tech sheet calls INOX its 100 percent stainless steel fermented and aged Chardonnay, aged on lees in stainless steel tanks for two months before bottling.
Research status
Where this page is headed
We are checking the current release, the producer record, and the bottle itself. Until that work is complete, this page reports only the facts carried by the dated store feed and shared region and grape research.
Getting to know Oregon.
Oregon gives Pinot Noir a credible cool-climate frame, but statewide origin leaves the vineyard mix unresolved. That distinction is the page’s central honesty test.
How grapes grow here
Oregon ranges from cool western valleys to warmer southern and eastern sites. Vintage and source region can materially change Pinot Noir style.
What lies under the vines
Volcanic, marine sedimentary and alluvial soils occur across Oregon; none can be assigned to this bottle without sourcing evidence.
How large the region is
- Pinot Noir context
- The Oregon Wine Board reports Pinot Noir as 59% of planted acres statewide.
Places within the region
- Willamette Valley
- The state’s principal Pinot Noir center, but not a valid bottle claim unless the release identifies it.
Getting to know Chardonnay.
Chardonnay is a white grape used for still and sparkling wine. It can be made without oak for a lighter shape or fermented and aged in oak for more weight.
Category guide
What to expect in the glass
Official category guides place citrus and apple at the cooler end and stone fruit or tropical fruit in riper examples. Oak and time on the spent yeast can add toast, spice and a rounder texture, but those features are winemaking choices rather than a guarantee.
