2023 Columbia Valley Chardonnay
Tasting notes: The 2023 Chardonnay has a bright golden hue in the glass. On the nose, aromas of ripe peach and nectarines are complimented by subtle notes of toasted oak and crème brulee. On the palate, the wine is medium-bodied and well-balanced, with flavors of ripe Granny Smith apple, honey, and lemon curd. The finish is long and lingering, with a hint of minerality.
Blend: 100% Chardonnay
Vineyards: 50% Conner Lee, 25% Boushey, 15% Gearheart
Aging: 75% Barrel Aged (60% New French oak and 40% neutral French oak)
92 Points - James Suckling
"White peaches, apple blossom, salted butter and fresh mangoes on the nose of this full-bodied, cool and peachy white. Supple and fresh."
