Lauren Ashton Cellars 2011 Chardonnay (Columbia Valley (WA))

Country: US /
Variety: Chardonnay Washington
Winery: Lauren Ashton Cellars / Columbia Valley (WA)

Leesy and nicely textured, this has lime and green apple notes that rest on a bed of bracing acidity. It has length, focus and detail, all without intrusive new oak—just a small percentage of the wine was barrel-fermented.
