Uncovered Chardonnay
Washington, USA
There are no dull bits to cut from what I consider to be a quite dramatic presentation of chard. Coming from a relatively cool climate, this chard is as Wine Spectator described it; tropical. The nose displays oil, wax and a whiff of moss. It was the texture and length of the wine that captivated me. It’s viscous and honied. Acidity is soft implying that you should consume these now. I did detect that this has begun its decent, but, all things said - excellent effort.

Well structured, oily, oak forward. Not my favorite style but appreciate the effort.
