The terroir of this Chardonnay is characterized by its location in the Willamette Valley, Oregon, which is renowned for its ideal climate and soil conditions for growing Chardonnay grapes. The winemaking process includes the use of traditional methods combined with modern techniques, such as whole cluster pressing and fermentation in French oak barrels, which adds complexity and depth to the wine.
Appearance: The EGW Chardonnay 2018 has a pale golden hue with brilliant clarity, reflecting its purity and quality.
Aroma: On the nose, this Chardonnay offers a bouquet of fresh citrus, green apple, and white peach, complemented by subtle hints of vanilla, toasted almonds, and a touch of minerality.
Taste: The palate is vibrant and well-balanced, with flavours of ripe pear, lemon zest, and a hint of tropical fruit. The oak influence is present but not overpowering, providing a creamy texture and notes of butterscotch and brioche.
Finish: The finish is long and elegant, with a crisp acidity that leaves a refreshing aftertaste of citrus and a slight minerality.
Food paired: This wine would be a sublime match with freshly shucked oysters, where the wine's acidity and minerality will enhance the brininess of the oysters, and baked scallops with smoked cerdito and tomato butter, where the wine's bright fruit and subtle oak will complement the scallops' richness and the dish's savoury elements.
