Hamacher 2007 Cuvée Forêts Diverses Chardonnay (Willamette Valley)

Country: US / Cuvée Forêts Diverses
Variety: Chardonnay Oregon
Winery: Hamacher / Willamette Valley

This soft and seductive wine is reminiscent of a good Chassagne-Montrachet from a relatively warm year. It has the same ripe, lightly tropical fruit, inflected with citrus and buoyed by firm acidity. The use of oak is restrained, the balance perfect, and the finish long and satisfying.
