Sipping Fine Wine

Gran Moraine takes its name from cataclysmic floods that occurred in the northern Willamette Valley of Oregon during the last ice age. Pale lemon with aromas of stone and citrus fruits with honeysuckle notes, barrel fermented. On the palate flavors of apple, pear and citrus with wet stone notes. Good acidity balance and mouthfeel, long ending with citrus and minerality. A must try from OR.

Is it just me or is Oregon Chardonnay starting to have its moment. Crisp, clean, nice reduction almost no presence of oak.
