Gone with the Wind(erlea)

A modern-chique tasting room at Winderlea balances atop the graceful, snow-dusted hills of Dundee. While the vines are sleeping, we thankfully sip on classic, pretty, Oregon Pinots and magically austere Chardonnay. Bottles here are are not only affordable, but wildly delicious. Winderlea's 2007 Chardonnay ($30) is not your electric-yellow, butter-fat layden, warm climate (*cough* California) showing; it certainly shined in the glass, down the throat, and every step in-between--impressive tastes from a five-vintage-old winery.
