Superabundant dispatch: Time to uncork a brand new episode
If pinot noir is the king of Oregon wines, then chardonnay is the queen. It wasn’t an easy run to the throne, though; it took decades to find the right mix of techniques, locations — and vines — to make chardonnay work in Oregon. Why did clones from Dijon, France, ultimately make the cut? We’ll tell you why.

Fresh off the heels of Oregon Chardonnay Celebration, I am thrilled to show the trailer for an upcoming episode of OBP’s Superabundant guided by yours truly! Airs March 24th on OPB!
Pinot noir may have put Oregon on the global wine map, but chardonnay is having a moment. Four Oregon wines made Wine Spectator's Top 100 list for 2022. The highest ranked came in at number 15 — and was a chardonnay.
To wine enthusiasts, Oregon chardonnay has long been a hidden secret, but now it can't stay out of the limelight.
OPB's Superabundant followed a number of the next generation of Oregon winemakers who are passionate about chardonnay and its ability to express the unique terroir of Oregon, a collection expertly curated by sommelier and international wine guide Chevonne Ball (@dirty_radish).
In this clip we visit the HiFi Wine Bar (@hifiwinebar) in McMinnville, Martin Woods and Cramoisi wineries (@cramoisi_vineyard) and the Carlton Winemakers Studio (@carlton_winemakers_studio) to see the changing style of Oregon wine.

I am so grateful to @jimmie_herrod for this beautiful rendition of the Black National Anthem sang just for @juneteenthsabercelebration
Merci mon ami!
Lyrics:
Lift ev'ry voice and sing
'Til earth and heaven ring
Ring with the harmonies of Liberty
Let our rejoicing rise
High as the list'ning skies
Let it resound loud as the rolling sea
Sing a song full of the faith that the dark past has taught us
Sing a song full of the hope that the present has brought us
Facing the rising sun of our new day begun
Let us march on 'til victory is won
.

Thinking of my @juneteenthsabercelebration co-founders. Wishing I was at #leimertpark with you all today! Thank you @southlawineclub for holding it down!
