Louise Vineyard Chardonnay
Fresh mandarin with green apple.
A delicate straw yellow with greenish reflections gives this Chardonnay an appealing brilliance. The clear, light color indicates freshness and minerality and arouses anticipation of the aromatic depth of the wine.
Aromas of lemon and mandarin dominate the bouquet, accompanied by notes of pear and green apple. Subtle nuances of yeast and nutmeg, paired with mineral hints of flint, give this Chardonnay a complex and elegant structure.
Dry and pleasantly soft, it develops a creamy texture, supported by lively acidity. On the palate, tree fruit and citrus meet earthy and spicy tones, which combine to form a long, harmonious finish and leave an elegant freshness.
The aging in French oak gives this Chardonnay fine buttery notes and balance. The unique volcanic soils of the Eola-Amity Hills promote minerality, while the cool microclimate allows for slow maturation, promoting freshness and complexity and making this wine special
