Alexana Terroir Series Chardonnay 2015

Dundee Hills, Willamette Valley, Oregon, United StatesWhole cluster pressed, native fermented, partially fermented in oak (18% new, and 34% in stainless), this then rested for 4 months on the lees before bottling. Light lemon, white blossoms, lemon curd is bracketed with wood siding, and finishes with a raft of cedar spicing and a kiss of pear skin. Very polished, yet still elegant and bright. Drinking well now.Tasted: 05 November 2019Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:
