Cristom - Chardonnay - Eola-Amity Hills
Overview: The Eola-Amity Hills Chardonnay is a blend of benchmark vineyards for the AVA with a focus on Cristom Estate fruit. The fruit comes predominately from the Louise and Paul Gerrie vineyards, as well as select neighboring sites. The grapes are 100% hand harvested and undergo 90% native yeast fermentation before whole cluster press. The wine then sees full malolactic fermentation in barrel before aging for 12 months, in 31% new French oak.
Tasting Notes: Aromatically the wine is filled with stone fruits, citrus fruits, and an underlying scent of fresh cream. On the palate the wine is beautifully texture from the malolactic fermentation with notes of crunchy Asian pears, Meyer lemon zest, and bright, racy mineral driven acidity.
Pairing: Wild mushroom and sausage tortiglioni
Points: 93, James Suckling
Format / ABV: 750 ml/13.0%
