"This is without question one of the finest examples of Chardonnay from the region" - International Wine Report
“Reminding many of the wines of Coche-Dury.” Charles Curtis MW
(97 pts International Wine Report) The 2022 00 Wines Chardonnay 'VGW' from the Willamette Valley showcases a striking neon light lemon core with a watery rim. On the nose, it reveals layers of lemon citrus, fresh yellow pear, and delicate white floral notes, all intertwined with a hint of white clay, dusty herbs, and crushed volcanic stones. The palate is remarkable, with an incredible backbone of acidity that provides impeccable balance and structure. The finish is long and lingering, with the vibrant acidity and mineral-driven complexity leaving a lasting impression. This Chardonnay is beautifully crafted, with a finish that extends for minutes. Can $75 be a value? Here it can! 1500 cases made. Highly recommended.
