Service Suggestions

One of our most delicate wines, we recommend serving the Chasselas Doré between cellar temperature to room temperature as the features are so delicate. Try it with the foods it is traditionally paired with - rich, creamy dishes like, fondue, creamy cheeses. A fun pairing could be homemade macaroni and cheese or pizza with a cream sauce base. This wine is also a Teppola family favorite to serve with brunch - we’re envisioning it to compliment a hollandaise sauce, or berry flavored compotes on French toast.

2018 Estate Chasselas Doré

November 2020: Availability of this wine is limited. Please call our tasting room at 503-852-7050 to purchase.

An extremely limited production wine, our Chasselas Doré is a Finn Hill Vineyard estate grape that is the only remaining half acre from our initial planting in 1980. These vines are celebrating their 40th year in 2020 and we feel lucky to be able to continue to produce this unique and wonderful wine from the own-rooted vines.  This Swiss-Austrian varietal is a delicate, dry white wine with a distinctive floral aroma that smells like an alpine meadow, fresh and full of wildflowers. This wine is dry and very nicely balanced with delicate, fresh flavors that make it a joy to drink.

The 2018 vintage greets you with a fresh bouquet of honeycomb and honeysuckle, with a whisper of peach and nectarine on the palate. With a mouth feel evocative of golden elixir, the spectacular finish will leave you daydreaming of how the earth smells right after the first spring rain.

Crisp and refreshing, made in 100% stainless steel.
