Big Table Farm, The Wild Bee, Chardonnay, Oregon, Willamette Valley 2018

Replacing the much-loved Willamette Valley bottling from years gone by, this is produced, notes the winery, from the same vineyards and barrels, with a price drop as a bonus. Scents and flavors of Meyer lemon, ripe pear and toasted coconut carry through a finish with splendid balance and innate tension.
