2016 · Four Winds Vineyard Chardonnay

Crowley Wines is an owner-operated Oregon winery founded in 2005 by Tyson Crowley, who also serves as winemaker. Drawing on long experience in the Oregon wine industry, Crowley focuses on transparent, terroir-driven Chardonnay and Pinot Noir from family-owned vineyard sites in the Willamette Valley. The vineyards are dry-farmed, unirrigated, and sustainably grown, and the winery participates in the Deep Roots Coalition. Four Winds Vineyard in the McMinnville Coast Range is a key site, known for its own-rooted Chardonnay and volcanic soils that shape lean, mineral wines. Crowley’s approach centers on balanced fruit, close grower relationships, and hands-on, minimal-intervention winemaking.
