Very enjoyable at 8 years and still has a few more to go. Well balanced.

Truly tremendous. Toasty but crisp with acid, not at all flabby like many high end oaked chardonnays. Crisp apple and honey, extremely round. I'm very impressed.

Beautifully clean, mineral scented nose. Creme fraiche and lemon curd on the palate. Solid Burgundian style. The future is very bright for Willamette Chardonnay.

Nutty yet crisp, full-bodied with nice nose. Paired well with mushroom gnocchi; would be great with lobster, shrimp, or scallops if chilled more.

V12. Awesome! Toasty pear bouquet. Unique crispy pear and lemony fruit. Creamy finish. This is a perfect patio pounder, well done!
