2021 Estate Chardonnay

TASTING NOTES

The color is a brilliant, pale gold with a silver edge. The nose opens with aromas of citrus fruit, lemon custard, key limes, and Asian pears. The flavors evolve towards stony, sea salt and umami like with flint over honey undertones; all intertwined with classic Chardonnay aromas of fresh cut pears, hints of vanilla, and cardamon. Fresh and lively on the palate with a creamy texture that brings flavors of lemon meringue, with undertones of minerality sustained all the way through the palate.  Elegant, complex, and long, yet light on its feet and delicate. This is a classic example of Oregon Chardonnay showcases a harmonious and vibrant finish sustained all the way through, so enjoyable on its own now, but with promises of a great aging potential.
