Cristom Vineyards Eola-Amity Hills Chardonnay Louise Vineyard 2021 SF Chronicle - Past Pick and orange marmaladeThis elegant Willamette Valley Chardonnay is aged 11 months in French oak with subtle barrel influence. Fresh cut grass, chilled Gravenstein apples, and chamomile tea notes open onto a palate that's honeyed and saline, with beeswax and stony minerality. The wine balances opulence with brightness, finishing with Pacific inspired salinity and exceptional length.
