2022 Willamette Valley Chardonnay
The Willamette Valley Chardonnay has lifted aromas of lemon meringue tart and notes of honeysuckle. The wine has a pleasant acidity which plays well with flavors of juicy pear and a rounded mouthfeel. Light on its feet, this wine is accessible and ready for drinking.
92 points James Suckling
A full-bodied wine with sliced pineapple, some nuts and salted caramel character. Very attractive intensity of wood and fruit. Medium finish.
90 points Wine Spectator
Elegant and appealing, this crisp white features citrus and stone fruit flavors that show accents of honeysuckle and mineral.
