Roserock Chardonnay by Domaine Drouhin Oregon 2018

Product description
Drouhin Oregon Roserock continues a four-generation story that began in 1880 when Joseph Drouhin moved from Chablis to Beaune in the heart of Burgundy. In Oregon, as in Burgundy, the Drouhin Family farms singular, expressive parcels of land. The Roserock Vineyard sits at the southern tip of the Eola-Amity Hills in Oregon's Willamette Valley and is marked by volcanic soils, cooler temperatures and an ideal elevation range. Farmed by Phillipe Drouhin, Roserock is certified sustainable.

Drouhin Oregon's Eola-Amity Hills Roserock vineyard is maturing nicely, as this rich, almost unctuous new Chardonnay demonstrates. Rippled with butterscotch around fruit flavours of apples and nectarines, this tasty bottle is buoyed with Meyer lemon acidity and accented with whiffs of toasted hazelnuts.

Some attractive, fresh bread dough here with aromas of clotted cream, poached pears and almond milk. The palate has a smooth outer frame, a fresh, fleshy core, and a supple fruit texture. Drink now.

92 Points - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

The 2018 Chardonnay offers bright, fresh apple fruit with more profound, savoury bass notes of honeycomb, almonds and spice. The medium-bodied palate is super silky and bursts with tensile, mineral-laced fruits, expanding into a long, juicy and gently honeyed finish.
