The 2023 Chardonnay Willamette Valley is highly expressive, with a whiff of sweet vanillin spice, white flowers, almond paste and crushed yellow apples. It is silky smooth and supple, with mineral-laced orchard fruits to balance. A subtle sour citrus tinge lingers, adding a lovely inner tension as it finishes vibrantly fresh.

A grilled pineapple aroma is this Chardonnay's lip-smacking “hello.” Other aromas include a bit of saline and pine needles. The wine's bright acidity helps create a crisp mouthfeel as well as livening up flavors of nectarines and toasted filberts. Try this wine with creamy Tuscan chicken pasta dish.
