  Nice Chard, light in body and color, more mineral on taste with some acidity, medium finish. Good, not great or overly memorable

  Nice minerality but a little thin. Very subtle and delicate.

  From the cool White Salmon vineyard (Washington's first chardonnay) planted in the Gorge in the early 70's, comes this pale chardonnay. It wasn't in the lineup but was offered to me when I asked after the La Lutte which had swept me off my feet a few years ago. A different wine but similar in spirit and definitely the less overt/ripe style I hoped for, this one's fermented in concrete egg, after which half of it is exposed to new and 1 yr oak and the other half is aged in SS. The result is Chablis-like with a bit of flint on white and green fruit; just lovely. Of course, I bought some.
