Ponzi Vineyards Laurelwood Chardonnay 2023

Laurelwood District

October 15, 2026 - Crafted from LIVE Certified Sustainable estate vineyards rooted in the Laurelwood District AVA's signature windblown loess soils, Ponzi's Laurelwood Chardonnay is a benchmark for Oregon white wine. The 2023 vintage's long, warm growing season brings perfect ripeness to a medium-to-full-bodied wine with aromas of honeysuckle, apricot, and wet stone, and a broad, textured palate that finishes bright and saline.

Champagne Ayala Rosé Majeur

Champagne

September 30, 2026 - Rosé Majeur is the perfect embodiment of the originality and finesse of the House’s wines. Made predominantly from Chardonnay, it is crafted with the addition of a small proportion of Pinot Noir from the best crus of the Montagne de Reims. A low dosage enables it to express the House style, both feminine and generous, with great elegance. The very high proportion of Chardonnay and the aging process result in a Champagne with remarkable finesse. It ages on the lees for three years, which is more than twice that is required by the appellation.
