Lachini 2011 Les Sols Arenacés Chardonnay (Chehalem Mountains)

Country: US / Les Sols Arenacés
Variety: Chardonnay Oregon
Winery: Lachini / Chehalem Mountains

Note the remarkably low alcohol! Not surprisingly, this is a searingly tart wine, the acidity further emphasized by stainless steel fermentation and aging. Nonetheless, flavors are rich and deep, a lemon and grapefruit explosion that seems to demand raw oysters. Definitely a wine for acid lovers.
