Growing Season & Winemaking With a warm, dry spring, bud-break occurred during the third week of April. Once bud break began, the transition from spring to summer was smooth and quick. Flowering followed during the second week of June while small amounts of rain replenished dry farmed vineyards throughout the month. Counts yielded approximately 100 berries per cluster, with 2-3 seeds per berry. Mother Nature gave us less rainfall and lots of sunshine, allowing Oregon vineyards to enter the veraison process around August 9th. 2005 was indeed another great vintage. Bud break started early in most vineyards but flowering was about normal for Oregon – between the first and second week in July. Poor weather conditions during flowering resulted in low yields for many vineyards in the Willamette Valley. Fortunately, Mother Nature was kinder at King Estate and we had normal to high yields complemented by excellent quality. Fruit maturity progressed at a nice slow pace giving the vines time to develop optimum varietal characteristics. Harvest at King Estate lasted from September 30th until October 22nd. <LI>SKU: 05-74-BT Other products in the category <A HREF="http://store.kingestate.com/Category1" TITLE="Wines">Wines</A> / <A HREF="http://store.kingestate.com/Category33" TITLE="Chardonnay">Chardonnay</A>: <LI><A HREF=http://store.kingestate.com/Product120 TITLE="2005 Chardonnay Signature - 750ml">2005 Chardonnay Signature - 750ml</A> -- King Estate 2005 Signature Chardonnay <LI><A HREF=http://store.kingestate.com/Product157 TITLE="2006 Chardonnay Signature">2006 Chardonnay Signature</A> MIGHT WE ALSO SUGGEST: <LI><A HREF=http://store.kingestate.com/Product120 TITLE="2005 Chardonnay Signature - 750ml">2005 Chardonnay Signature - 750ml</A> <LI><A HREF=http://store.kingestate.com/Product157 TITLE="2006 Chardonnay Signature">2006 Chardonnay Signature</A> <LI><A HREF=http://store.kingestate.com/Product152 TITLE="Gift Packaging">Gift Packaging</A> <A HREF="http://store.kingestate.com" TITLE="King Estate Winery Products">King Estate Winery Products</A> <A HREF="http://www.kingestate.com">King Estate Winery</A> King Estate Winery Online Store powered by Nexternal <A HREF="http://www.nexternal.com" TITLE="shopping cart software">shopping cart software</A>
