"A very complex and powerful chardonnay with ripe-nectarine, lemon and grapefruit aromas, laced with cool, stony notes, as well as flint and attractively restrained oak. The palate has mouthwatering, intense fruit with such attractively concentrated, pithy-grapefruit and white-peach flavors with beautifully wound flesh that pervades the crisp, long and gently toasty finish. Really superb chardonnay."

"Grapes from old vines aged 12 months in 20% new French oak followed by six months on the lees in stainless steel. The perfumed nose comprises white tea, honey nougat, chamomile, and lemongrass. Unctuous and round-bodied, lithe and luxurious, the wine has a rich nature balanced by a streak of acidity that clings to lively notes of linen and lemon."

"The 2017 Chardonnay EGW is scented of chamomile, fresh quince, grilled peaches, Greek yogurt, cashews and lemon curd with a flinty hint. The medium-bodied, silky palate features a lovely mix of ripe, honeyed fruits and mineral notions, enlivened by juicy acidity and finishing long and energetic. This has the mineral, nutty character of a great white Burgundy, with Oregonian flesh and power."
