Country: US /
Variety: Chardonnay Oregon
Winery: Eisold-Smith / Willamette Valley
Some wines fall outside the tasting box, and this is one of those. Intense, rich and distinctive—it’s not your father’s Chardonnay. Spontaneous fermentation (through native yeast) contributes to the texture and density. Concentrated fruit suggests nectarines, Meyer lemon and candied oranges just on the edge of being overripe. Drink now through 2018.
