Pearlstad Vineyard Chardonnay

Huge Chablis nose. Minerals and sea shell. Brown sugar, tree bark, wow that brown sugar, so so salty, some white flowers as well. Palate is extraordinary. Structured and pure. Salty throughout. Delicate citrus sweetness. Superb concentration. 12 months barrel and 6 months tank. All sur lie. Long finish and so delineated. Salty and juicy. 5% new oak. Unreal complexity. Oregon oak in the wine only. The finish is crazy. The brown sugar is haunting now. This is insanely good and so complex one cannot believe it. The concentration of minerals, salt, citrus and structure is just off the charts. Best chardonnay ever from here. After 11 hours open the nose is screaming minerals. Palate is so energetic and compact. Amazing minerality and sweet minerals. Glorious. So juicy, pure, balanced and compact. Best Oregon Chardonnay I ever had. Really great on day 2. Like a Puligny 1er cru/GC Chablis cross. Stunning finesse. So juicy and mineral with smoke and iodine and palate staining sap. 9.7 to 9.8.
