Four Winds Willamette Valley Chardonnay
Fuhk, still super fresh with lovely arc of acidity coursing through creamy, yet clean, meyer lemon, white peaches, and on and on. Well done Tyson!

May 1st, 2019Damn down to 2 bottles after this one. Stunning and only getting better. The first bottling of Four Winds Chardonnay. So bright and full of that lemon lime zip but nose and palate so full of deep flavors from extended time on the lees and full oxydative style Chardonnay produces wine that at its base ages better and holds real terroir. This bottling shows why you make this style of wine.

Palate is glorious with acid and fruit sizzling before softening to a funky buttery finish that actually lengthens and balances the finish. It lasts and lasts but not forever and that's what I want cus Tyson made this one into a superhero that could rescue my tastebuds from boredom every day!!
