This impressive Chardonnay was sourced from six different Willamette Valley sites and saw only 10% new French oak (for 11 months) prior to bottling. Initially aromatically retiscent and needing roughly a one hour decant, this delicious Chardonnay opens with an aromatic profile of marzipan, honeysuckle, wild mushroom, brioche and lemon oil. Showing some marvelous mid-palate texture, this wine has ripe flavors of roasted pineapple, Pazzaz apple, Bartlett pear tart and suggestions of baking spices and lemon curd. The light cream finish is lovely. While delicious now, this will cellar well for another decade or more. (Best 2017-2027) - April, 2017 (OB)
