Apex 2011 Chardonnay (Columbia Valley (WA))

Country: US /
Variety: Chardonnay Washington
Winery: Apex / Columbia Valley (WA)

This 100% varietal wine is lightly aromatic with notes of toast, spice and apple. The oak aging (20% new French) helps provide a sense of roundness but the fruit concentration doesn’t seem to stand up to it.
