No Oak Chardonnay

2011 Columbia Valley Chardonnay

This white wine showcases a refreshing and vibrant profile, with a body that is light yet engaging, making it incredibly easy to enjoy. Its acidity is bright and lively, providing a mouthwatering crispness that enhances the overall tasting experience. The fruit intensity is prominent, with enticing notes of green apple and pear dancing on the palate, offering a beautifully balanced flavor. This Chardonnay is wonderfully dry, allowing the pure essence of the grape to shine through without any oak influence, making it a superb choice for those seeking a clean, elegant white wine.

Columbia Valley

Sheltered by the rain shadow of the Cascade Mountains, Columbia Valley is home to the majority of Washington's vineyards. Cool nights keep zippy acidity in the grapes, while long daylight hours give the fruit plenty of chance to ripen. This results in full-bodied Merlot, elegant Cabernet Sauvignon and deeply concentrated Syrah. White wines are just as tantalizing, with toasty oak-touched Chardonnay and ripe stone fruit-flavored Riesling taking the spotlight. Sub-AVAs to look out for are Yakima Valley and Walla Walla. The Columbia Valley is one of the only appellations in the United States to occupy vineyards in two states, as it crosses the Oregon border in the southern part of the valley.
