  Similar to my experience from August 2019. Really hitting stride and displaying great balance. Made in a more demonstrative style showing lots of yellow and white fruits, and secondary characteristics with the potential for further cellaring. Drink through 2026.

  A little rounder than the 15 or 17 but quite ideal tonight with chicken simmered in a tomato, garlic, wine sauce. I got yellow apple and a bit of coconut. Not necessarily in line with the style of many of the fantastic Willamette Valley Chardonnays lately but quite tasty.

  This bottle was shier and more reticent than a previous one.

  a bit fuller bodied and oakier than I've come to expect from Oregon chardonnays, but by no means plump or buttery. medium bodied, full in the mouth, decent finish

  Another delicious showing with nice apple and coconut on the nose and more on the palate. Some hints of vanilla oak but not obtrusive and this came across as really nicely balanced with good complexity.
