Description

WillaKenzie Estate Willamete Valley Chardonnay 2018

Grape Varietals & Region: 100% Chardonnay from 2 Dijon clones - 76 & 95. The fruit comes from a blend of estate vineyards across the Willamette Valley in Oregon, USA

Taste Profile: This white wine is vibrant and precise, with aromas of citrus, chamomile and pear. Mid-palate roundness is followed by bright acidity and a lengthy finish.

Buttery & Honeyed Whites

Full-bodied fruit and spice, often with the ability to age. This style usually relies on new oak to impart vanilla driven characteristics. Malolactic fermentation & on lees ageing also contributes to the texture
