Bergström 2000 Chardonnay (Willamette Valley)

Country: US /
Variety: Chardonnay Oregon
Winery: Bergström / Willamette Valley

Lean and crisp despite bells and whistles of barrel fermentation and lees aging. Sure, that adds richness and depth, but the wine stays true to its roots with high acidity and the flavor profile of apples, not pineapples. It’s a distinguished wine. That’s not a technical term, but it gets the point across.
