00 Wines (Double Zero) EGW Chardonnay 2018
While Pinot Noir has long been the main focus in Oregon's Willamette Valley, Chardonnay is their new rising star. Chardonnay is not new to the region, but the combination of finally isolating the proper clones and matching them to their ideal soils has sparked a new love affair with this Burgundian grape. Heck, even Dominique Lafon, one of the most respected producers in Burgundy has called Willamette Valley Chardonnay "the best in the New World." And one of the producers making the most thrilling Chardonnay's out of the region is 00 (Double Zero) Wines!
Pairs well with a variety of dishes, including poultry, seafood, creamy pasta, mushrooms, cheeses, pork, veal, buttery dishes, grilled vegetables, and salads with vinaigrette dressings.
Ripe Opal apples and peaches, pithy lemon phenolics, flinty reduction, toasty well-integrated oak, popcorn (without butter), and fresh zippy acidity.
