2014 Big Table Farm The Elusive Queen Willamette Valley Chardonnay

13.6% alc., 100 cases. A barrel selection and a little more new oak than the regular Willamette Valley bottling. · Light golden color and clear in the glass. A little more fruit richness, structure and finish than the regular bottling. Upon entry, the wine fills the cheeks with a panoply of orchard fruit and apple flavors with a subtle sense of spicy oak seasoning. There is just enough tannin to add body and backbone, and a crisp, slightly viscous finish entices the drinker to take another sip. Score: 94. Reviewed December 12, 2015
