Ripe pear, white flower, citrus zest, ocean salinity, damp slate. Broad texture and gorgeous acid gives a backbone that has plenty of life left. Fantastic food wine. Marcus Goodfellow delivers yet again...per usual.

Mmmm! Crystal clear bright light green/yellow in the glass...explosive, lean, weightless. Absolutely brilliant now...but this wine is going to take on gravitas as it knits together. Silk and steel...I love Oregon Chardonnay...and this terroir, this vintage, this expression is exhibit A.

Just ripe pear, kumquat zest. M+acidity, hide alcohol perfectly. Saline and mineral. Taste like 13+ cool climate, but 14.1%in fact. Surprisingly wide range of food pairing.
