The 2016 Columbia Chardonnay has vibrant aromas and flavors of juicy pears, apples and subtle notes of tropical fruits. Hints of sweet vanilla and oak are complemented by bright acidity for an elegant Chardonnay that is distinctly Northwest. The perfect accompaniment for a variety of foods, although we would highly recommend with crab or mussels. ### Product Description As Washington\'s largest appellation, the Columbia Valley comprises nearly all of the state\'s total vinifera grape plantings. Its volcanic, well-drained, sandy loam soils stress the vines to yield focused flavors in our grapes. In most parts of the Columbia Valley, there is an average of 16 hours of sunlight and only eight inches of rainfall. This combination lends itself to the creation of unique white wines with elegant fruit flavors and a crisp, polished finish. Tasting Notes Elegant with delicious citrus notes.
