2016 Morgen Long Chardonnay Eyrie
6/30/2023 - sethmorgenlong Likes this wine:
Perhaps one of the most distinctive wines I've ever produced. Decanted to help the regal reduction that is more feral than flinty blow off. Rich but fresh, edges are rounding a bit but this is still quite youthful. Drinking very well, but no rush. I can't find my vinification notes, but I bet this was bottled with 35ppm free SO2, under DIAM 10 54mm.

2020 Morgen Long Chardonnay Eyrie

Very youthful, powerful oak, bristiling acidity, fresh, chalky with good texture and length. Picked 9/19. 100% new oak. Bottled with 50ppm free SO2 under 55mm x 25mm Aquitaine Liege punch cork.
I begrudgingly recommend this to be consumed sooner rather than later due to the challenging vintage. This showed absolutely zero issues but the wine is singing now.

2019 Morgen Long Chardonnay Eyrie
6/30/2023 - sethmorgenlong Likes this wine:
Lots of flinty reduction, high acidity for the pH, reduction helps to coil this up. Very youthful, great texture, precise. Hold, or decant to enjoy now. Bottled with 45ppm free SO2 under DIAM 10 54mm. What an amazing vintage for the Willamette Valley.
