Vineyards Benton Hills Vineyards is in a premier wine region in southeastern Washington state, comprising several arid southwest sloping hills that are home to many of the Columbia valleyโs most celebrated vineyards. Ancient basalt flows formed a cluster of small mountains with gentle sloping hillsides ideal for growing vinifera grapes. We affectionately refer to them as our Benton Hills. Winemaking Benton Hills Chardonnay is a pure expression of bright tropical and stone fruit due to a deliberate, cool fermentation in stainless steel tanks. The wine fermented on French and American oak to build structure and enhance freshness. Malolactic fermentation was only partially completed after alcoholic fermentation, to preserve the natural acidity and fresh, crisp fruit flavors while also adding hints of soft richness. The wine aged on lees, without oak, for four months before being bottled.
