2024 Chardonnay
Sourced from the acclaimed Connor Lee Vineyard in the Columbia Valley, this Chardonnay showcases the site’s hallmark balance of richness and precision. Warm days and cool nights yield fruit with vibrant acidity and depth, while meticulous barrel aging adds complexity and texture.
Fermented and aged for 12 months in French oak barrels (35% new, 65% neutral), the wine was stirred on its lees to enhance mouthfeel and partially allowed through malolactic fermentation to preserve its lively freshness.
The wine opens with white peach, pear, and lemon blossom, layered with hints of vanilla cream, hazelnut, and crushed stone. On the palate, golden apple, lemon, and pineapple mingle with delicate oak spice and minerality, leading to a long, elegant finish marked by citrus zest and almond. Medium-bodied and silky, it offers both vibrant energy and refined texture, a graceful expression of cool-climate Chardonnay crafted with care and precision.
