Roserock – Drouhin – 2015 Chardonnay – Eola-Amity Hills – Oregon

The nose is aromatic and offers richness as well as a slight intensity. It reveals notes of lemon paste and slight touches of mandarin associated with subtle hints of juicy peach, compoted white fruits as well as an imperceptible hint of flowers and spices. The palate is fruity, well-balanced, suave and offers a slight fat as well as a small aerial side. In the mouth this wine expresses notes of lemon, flat peach and slight touches of apple, exotic fruits associated with hints of fleshy/crushed Williams pear, a subtle hint of Quenette as well as slight touches of minerality (in the background) and subtle hints of spices (in the background). Good length. A beautiful wine!
