I have placed a number of orders for wine with B‑21. Could not be happier with the process. Selection is very nice and comprehensive. I have called their support line re delivery of a pre‑order and was very pleased with their level of support in delivering wine around a time period when traveling and\or not available to take receipt. Overall, I extremely pleased.

Only thing I don’t like is UPS charges an access point fee to drop off five dollars per case I would have it shipped to my apartment but you have to be present to sign for it and UPS is terrible about arranging that

2022 Walter Scott Cuvee Anne Chardonnay (750ml)

Chardonnay from Willamette, Oregon

B-21 Top Recommendation

Crafted in a Burgundian style expressing “purity, minerality and depth of fruit” according to Eric Guido of Vinous, these top scoring 2022 selections from cult favorite Willamette Valley winery Walter Scott are not to be missed by fans of Oregon Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, a range of exceptional 2022’s declared “wildly successful” by critic Guido and all boasting complexity built for a decade or more of evolution.

Founded by Erica Landon and Ken Pahlow in the Eola-Amity Hills, Walter Scott was named to honor Ken’s late grandfather and nephew, producing its first vintage in 2009 at Patricia Green Cellars and moving the operation over to Evening Land Vineyards where Ken went to work in sales and in the cellar under the tutelage of Dominique Lafon. Now produced in a small winery leased from the Casteel family of Bethel Heights Winery, Walter Scott continues “to raise the bar across their portfolio” according to Jeb Dunnuck critic Audrey Frick, “producing exceptional wines with purity and balance” and sourcing their wines from some of region’s top Chardonnay and Pinot Noir vineyards. Produced from four vineyards in the Eola-Amity Hills, the bright 94 pt. 2022 Walter Scott La Combe Verte Pinot Noir offers pure, earthy fruit “back by juicy acidity and silky tannins” according to the Wine Enthusiast’s Michael Alberty, calling the entry level offering a “great buy.” A cellar selection bridging the gap between the La Combe Verte and the single vineyard cuvees, the fresh and vibrant 94 pt. 2022 Walter Scott Cuvee Ruth Pinot Noir boasts “ripe wild berry fruits and juicy acidity” according to Eric Guido of Vinous, describing it as “wonderfully complex and refined, making it a fantastic value.” From the iconic vineyard located in the new Mount Pisgah Polk County AVA, the dark fruited and intense 97 pt. 2022 Walter Scott Freedom Hill Vineyard Pinot Noir is “silky and fresh” according to the Wine Advocate’s Erin Brooks with rich, velvety tannins on a palate that’s “seamless yet powerful.” Boasting “masses of ripe orchard fruits and salty minerals,” Eric Guido of Vinous calls the 95 pt. 2022 Walter Scott Justice Vineyard Chardonnay “a beast of a wine" boasting a silky texture and substantial depth. The elegant 94 pt. 2022 Walter Scott Justice Vineyard Pinot Noir is “a wine of intense brilliance” according to Decanter’s Clive Pursehouse with layers of velvety tannins that will “undoubtedly transform beautifully over time."

From their benchmark Chardonnays that are “easily some of the best examples I have tasted” according to critic Eric Guido to their “pretty amazing” Pinots, these 2022 Walter Scott selections are well priced for their loyal fans to stock up as well as lovers of Oregon wines looking to explore this exceptional portfolio – echoing Vinous critic Neal Martin who counts Walter Scott among his great discoveries, “If you have not tried these wines yet, do yourself a favor."

The 2022 Chardonnay Cuvée Anne comes from several vineyards (Justice, Koosah, Sojeau and Witness Tree) located on both volcanic and marine sedimentary soils. It was fermented and aged in 45% new, 350- and 500-liter barrels for 12 months, plus an additional four months in stainless steel. The nose presents deep, savory scents of matchstick, roasted almonds, honey, pastry and golden apples. The light-bodied palate offers concentrated flavors that are more open and expansive than the nose at this stage. It has a seamless spine of acidity that drives its flavors into a long finish and calls you back for another sip. Give it 2–3 years in bottle or a few hours in a decanter—it opens dramatically with air. 750 cases were made.

The Cuvée Anne may serve as an introduction to the intensity of the Walter Scott single-vineyard Chardonnays. This barrel selection brings together fruit from the Justice, Koosah, Sojeau, and Witness Tree Vineyards. A fruity depth flashes across the aromatics with honeyed ginger, apricot flesh, dried white flowers, and a nutty, savoury note. The palate is rich and juicy, with a smoky lemon peel element brightening riper stone fruits and a poached peach richness.

94 points, Clive Pursehouse, Decanter (May 2024)

Year after year, this continues to be one of the best entry wines to a range, and this vintage does not disappoint. Taking a bright yellow/green-tinged hue, the 2022 Chardonnay Cuvee is exceptional on the nose, with a calling card of flinty lift, bright green apples, salted lime candies, and fresh white flowers. Medium-bodied, with a fantastic texture, it’s so damn good, with balanced, ripe acidity and a pristine feel throughout. Crystalline and fresh, it will drink well over the coming 6-8 years. 850 cases were produced.

93 points, Audrey Frick, Jeb Dunnuck (Aug 2024)

The 2022 Chardonnay Cuvée Anne slowly evolves in the glass, slightly reductive, with a whiff of crushed rocks giving way to rosemary and freshly sliced apricot. This washes across the palate with a flinty sensation as mineral-inflected fruits cascade throughout. The 2022 leaves a lingering concentration, punching well above its class. It finishes long, savory, and nearly salty with a citrus tinge.

92+ points, Eric Guido, Vinous (Aug 2024)

Cuvée Anne's aromas of popcorn kernels warming in oil, tangerines, toasted filberts, talc and wildflower honey are enough all by themselves to make the mouth water. The smooth, almost creamy texture of this wine allows flavors like honeycomb, lemon basil and green tea to feel as if they are gliding along. Try this wine with goat cheese and slices of yellow dragon fruit.
