2015 Phelps Creek Vineyards “Lynette” Columbia Gorge Chardonnay

13.9% alc., TA 0.64, 239 cases, $38. Named after winery owner Robert Morus’ spouse. Dijon 75 and 76 and Wente clones. Whole cluster pressed, bartonage as required. Aged in French oak barrels, 20% new Cadus. · Light golden yellow color in the glass. The aromas of lemon peel, pear and wax draw you in to the glass. Slightly creamy in the mouth, with showy flavors of pear, white peach and honey. The spirited acidity compliments the fruit load and the wine finishes in a seductively suave fashion. Impressive freshness for a 4+ year-old wine. Score: 92. Reviewed February 17, 2020
