2023 | Composition Chardonnay | Willamette Valley Venus La Universal close-grained tannins and racy acidityThe 2023 Chardonnay is a bright straw color and opens to attractive notes of flinty crushed stones with lime zest, pear, white pepper, and powdery white flowers. Medium bodied, its approachable and highly charming and has lots of finesse and elegance all the way through. Its ready to enjoy now and will likely show its best over the next 6 8 years. 93 Pts Jeb Dunnuck
