2009 Vintage Tasting Notes

2009 Wine Spectator - 91 points - Transparency of flavor makes this medium-weight, refreshingly balanced white special, with pear, apple and floral notes rendered in detail as the finish lingers. Drink now through 2013. - H.S.

New York Times' #1 Oregon Chardonnay 3-13-2012.

"...our favorite bottle, the 2009 Reserve chardonnay from Lemelson, very much reminded me of a good Pouilly-Fuissé, with its lively energy, seemingly ready to uncoil in the mouth, and subtle flavors that might best be described as mineral, spicy and nutlike, but not fruity." - Eric Asimov

Aromas include candied citrus and creme brulee. Fresh acidity on the palate and lingering hints of lemon, apricot and yellow plum.

2008 Vintage Tasting Notes

This is an aromatically rich wine with a fresh, citrusy palate.

2008 Wine Spectator - 91 points - Polished, with nicely modulated pear and spice flavors, gliding easily into a fine finish, hinting at fig and cream as this lingers. Drink now through 2014. - H.S.
