Community Tasting Note

Tuesday, November 12, 2019 - Wow. The range on this wine here on Cellar Tracker is from 96 way down to 61 (Sixty-flipping-one? Are you kidding me?). I bought this nearly a decade ago when I was out in the Willamette Valley for the International Pinot Noir Celebration. The winery is owned and operated by the Drouhin family of Burgundy fame, and this Chardonnay certainly does that heritage proud. A decided golden color with more tropical than citrus notes, hints of oak, and a touch of vanilla. While this wine almost assuredly saw some wood, it is delightfully balanced with the fruit. Coupled with a zingy (yet balanced) acidity, this is simply marvelous. Well Done. thedrunkencyclist.com
