Eola-Amity Hills Chardonnay
Lively lemon with sweet pear.
The 2020 vintage of Eola-Amity Hills Chardonnay is a brilliant gold color with a soft sheen.
This Chardonnay seduces with a harmonious blend of citrus notes, including lively zest of lemon and tangerine, as well as the grace of fresh pineapple and fragrant chamomile. A hint of lemon verbena and the delicate sweetness of pears round off the olfactory experience.
An exquisite texture unfolds on the palate, moving between creamy and crisp. The fresh acidity, accompanied by a mineral core, gives this wine a captivating tension. Flavor notes of exotic fruits, citrus and a hint of minerality ensure a balanced and unforgettable taste experience.
Cristom's 2020 Eola-Amity Hills Chardonnay comes from the Paul Gerrie Vineyard, which sits at 800 feet in elevation and is characterized by high winds and volcanic soils. These unique conditions give the wine its distinctive structure, acidity and phenolics.
