Tasting Notes
-
2017 was a classic Chardonnay vintage in the Willamette Valley. Moderate temperatures and cool harvest conditions allowed for extended ripening and complex flavors. In the glass, there is a brilliant straw yellow color. Immediate aromas of apricot and lemon oil are apparent and there is a pleasant balance of sweet French oak and vanilla notes. The palate is clean and enjoyable with flavors of lemon zest, honeysuckle and fresh bread. Enjoy now and until at least 2025.
