Winemaker Notes

Sigrid Chardonnay is an homage to the Swedish grandmother whose spirit, grace, and strength inspired three generations of Bergström children. After harvesting each of the estate vineyards by hand, they ferment the fruit separately in small French oak barrels, where it undergoes full malolactic fermentation and aging sur lie for 18 months. Only then do they select the finest of these barrels for the Sigrid Chardonnay. In a bottle of Sigrid, you will find the layered textures, mineral structure, fresh citrus and stone-fruit flavors and floral aromas we hope will inspire you to continue following the Oregon renaissance of this noble white grape.

Professional Ratings

  • 95
    In Sigrid, Bergström’s flagship chardonnay, Josh Bergström manages to pack his wine with flavor but no excess weight. From three of his biodynamically farmed vineyards, the wine starts out high-toned and tense, with an angular structure and bright, saline flavors that turn nutty, generous and succulent with air. It has the stuffing to age for a half-dozen years at least, if you can resist.
  • 94
    A very complex chardonnay with grapefruit pith and attractive, fresh white peaches, almonds and flinty, stony nuances, too. The palate has a vibrant, lemon core with superbly fresh, taut and concentrated fruit presence.
  • 93
    This barrel-fermented, reserve-barrel selection is annually among Oregon's finest Chardonnays. Richly endowed with ripe fruit, it marries apples and tree fruits to flavors of lightly salted butter, toasted nuts and wet stone.
  • 93
    The 2017 Chardonnay Sigrid has a pretty perfume of baked quince, ripe peaches, jasmine, oyster shell, dried hay and saline with notes of honey and hazelnuts. The light to medium-bodied palate is rounded and blossoms slowly from mineral to honeyed fruits, finishing long, fresh and nuanced.

All estate acreage is farmed biodynamically and all wines express the wonderful diversity of Oregon's many great terroirs.

Bergström Wines consists of five estate vineyards totaling 84 acres that span across four of the Willamette Valley’s best appellations: The Bergström Vineyard, Silice Vineyard, Winery Block, Gregory Ranch and Le Pré du Col. Each estate vineyard is farmed without the use of harsh chemicals, systemic or fertilizers, and the winery produces approximately 10,000 cases of ultra-premium and extremely sought-after wine each year, including two Chardonnays and nine different Pinot Noirs.

One of the most popular and versatile white wine grapes, Chardonnay offers a wide range of flavors and styles depending on where it is grown and how it is made. While it tends to flourish in most environments, Chardonnay from its Burgundian homeland produces some of the most remarkable and longest lived examples. California produces both oaky, buttery styles and leaner, European-inspired wines. Somm Secret—The Burgundian subregion of Chablis, while typically using older oak barrels, produces a bright style similar to the unoaked style. Anyone who doesn't like oaky Chardonnay would likely enjoy Chablis.

Chehalem Mountains Wine

Willamette Valley, Oregon

View all products

The Chehalem Mountains is a northwest-southeast span of several distinct mountains, ridges and peaks in the northern part of the Willamette Valley. Of all of Willamette Valley's smaller AVAs, it is closest to the city of Portland. Its highest summit, Bald Peak at an elevation of 1,633 feet, serves to generate cooler air for the rest of the AVA and its hillside vineyards. The region covers 70,000 acres but only 1,600 acres are planted to vines; soils of the Chehalem Mountains are a mix of basalt, ocean sediment and loess.
