Oregon Chardonnay Being Pressed for Sparkling Wines

Posted on September 23, 2009

After having been harvested from Knudsen Vineyards and Lone Star Vineyard, these Chardonnay grapes were chilled in Argyle’s cold room at 34°F in preparation for pressing.

Here you can see the wine press literally being stuffed full with several tons of Chardonnay grapes.

Once pressed, the juice will be fermented and eventually used in our sparking wines like the Argyle Brut and blended with Pinot Noir and/or Pinot Meunier for sparkling wines like our Brut Rosé.
