The 2022 Chardonnay Willamette Valley is delicate in the glass, with lemon oils and mint complicated by hints of pine. Mineral-tinged orchard fruits and savory spice wash across the palate with a citrus concentration, adding tension toward the close. It finishes long, with a lingering sour tinge, leaving the mouth watering for more.
A pale salmon hue with a peach tinge, the 2022 Chardonnay Willamette Valley is wild with tropical aromas of fresh peach, lychee, cherry blossoms, and fresh herbs. On the palate, it’s spritely and ripe, with wonderful salted citrus, fresh acidity, and a pithy texture. Although it will hold up over the next several years, I prefer this for early drinking to capture all the fresh floral aromas that it’s showing off at this stage.
