Tyee Wine Cellars
|
|
Tyee Wine Cellars is located in the heart of the Willamette Valley near Corvallis, Oregon. Our vineyard and winery are on the Buchanan Family Century farm nestled between the foothills of Oregon's Coast Range and the valley floor, in close proximity to a winding creek. With rich soils and a moderate, cool climate, the Willamette Valley is similar in terroir to the great wine regions of Burgundy, France and Northern Italy. We specialize in producing small handcrafted varieties of cool climate, well-balanced food wines including; Pinot noir, Chardonnay, Pinot gris, Pinot blanc, and Gewurztraminer. Tyee, an early Northwest word meaning "chief" or "the best" symbolizes our commitment to the production of handcrafted varietal wines of highest quality. The symbol on our Pinot noir label (at left) shows in traditional Northwest design, the raven stealing the sun, bringing light to the world, a symbol which makes a strong impression during dark, rainy Oregon winters while waiting for the light and warmth of spring.

Tyee’s Chardonnay, Willamette Valley
Ripe citrus, apple, herbal aromas and flavors with smokey, toasty notes and a crisp, rich mouthfeel. We ferment 100% of this wine in French oak barrels and age it on the primary yeast sediment, ('sur lees') for 12 months. A true "cool climate" Chardonnay, it balances varietal fruitiness with refreshing acidity and delicate oak flavors, making it a wonderful food wine.

Floral and spicy with ripe flavors of pear, citrus, and nuances of honey and cinnamon. We specialize in the production of rich, full bodied, dry Gewürztraminer wines which are excellent with seafood, turkey, ham, and spicy cuisine.
