Gran Moraine Yamhill-Carlton Oregon Chardonnay 2016 Review

This is Chardonnay from 100 feet above sea level and in a rain shadow, and all this comes through in the wine. The salinity, from the high elevation and lack of rain, will slake your thirst and leave you with a nice, medium finish. While in your nose and on your palate you’ll experience a very refreshing Chardonnay with notes green apple, toasted coconut and a hint of honeysuckle. The key to this wine is the acidity, as it is in a good place to keep all the characteristics individual. This wine wants, nay, needs, a meat and cheese plate stat.
