This is the most famous vineyard for Chardonnay in Washington and they are the only winery to use this vineyard other than CCM. Lemon drop candy a touch of lime blossom along with a note of vanilla spice just a touch of oak with lively balance. A medium bodied Chardonnay. Finish 40+ excellent

Some tropical aromas and tastes which is really very interesting in a Chardonnay. Would not have guessed this was a Chardonnay overall.

Very complex wine. Nice floral bouquet. Hints of honey, and oak. Nice rich flavor of melons and stone fruits.
