Pale clear yellow. Nose of lemon pear with a nice crispness on the palate. Very burgundy like on the way down with a great combination of lemon, pear, melon and great mineral. Love this wine

Led off virtual tasting with winemaker Grant Coulter with this wine, switched to Pinot Noir, then finished the night with this and Pink Floyd “Comfortably Numb”.

Second one of these in the last 2 months. Crisp, medium body, citrus and honeysuckle, pears dominate.

Medium body, mildly dry, crisp. Lemons, honey, pears. Grant Coulter is a monster winemaker!

Whoa... so much to say about this. Love this producer. Will limit to maybe favorite Chardonnay in last 6-12months. Characteristics of burgundy - soft and lush mouthfeel, buttery notes, complexity - but great aspects of new world - slightly grass nose, citrus on palate and lush, low filtering body. Acidity is med/high and Montreal its is great. Color is unique - very pale gold but unfiltered appearance.

Bought at PDX transport shop.
