Very interesting Chardonnay at 9 years of age. Starts out tight and hard but opens with aeration to reveal caramel, baked apples, cinnamon. All with a very firm malic acid backbone that will carry it forward another 10 or more years. Not for the acid shy.

Now this...! Wow! Racy and wonderfully balanced with perfected oak treatment and all pure fruits, tilting into the ripe citrus, red apple and fading flower spectrum. Lively and vivid, this Oregon masterpiece will stay wonderful another 10+ years easily.

Outstanding now and will still be for another 10 years minimum and likely another 10 years after that.
