2024 Cameron, Dundee Hills Chardonnay

Cameron Winery is a long-standing producer in the Dundee Hills, established in 1984 by John Paul and his partners with a commitment to sustainable, dry-farmed viticulture. This wine is made from grapes sourced primarily from the Abbey Ridge and Clos Electrique vineyards, where vines average roughly 40 years of age and grow in the region’s iconic iron-rich basalt soils. In the glass, it displays a medium-to-full body with accurate, grounded notes of apricot, citrus blossom, and hazelnut, defined by a clear, saline minerality. The 2024 vintage provided a warm, stable growing season, resulting in healthy fruit with excellent concentration and a vibrant, balanced structure. This is a focused, expressive wine that is ready to enjoy upon release but possesses the internal tension to hold well for those who prefer to cellar their bottles.
