Willamette Valley Vineyards Chardonnay Dijon Clone 2017 |
Immediately drinkable, this opens with pretty accents of toasted coconut around stone fruit and apple. It's spicy and delicious, and 16 months in 20% new French oak adds a swirl of butterscotch trailing the finish.
The nose opens with aromas of fresh tropical fruit, pear, pineapple and honey that unfolds into a creamy medium-bodied palate offering a beautiful textural experience and carries in flavors of minerality with a kiss of oak. The finish is long with balancing acidity to highlight its vibrancy and notes of crème brûlée that linger far beyond the sip.
Food Pairings: Pair with rich seafood dishes like sea scallops or shrimp scampi, roast chicken, creamy risotto, peach caprese salad and white cheddar cheeses.
