2020 DFW Oregon Chardonnay
Claudio Delfino collaborated with winemaker Leon Glaser from JosephJane Winery on a custom crush project. They made a refreshing and zesty unoaked Chardonnay using grapes from a single vineyard, grown in the AVA Umpqua Valley.
87 points at the US Rating competition in San Francisco. Sommelier's notes: "A wine that is ripe with nuances of apples, mango, and oranges. The wine is round and intense on the palate. This wine is food-friendly, and could work alone as an aperitif."
