2018 Walter Scott Chardonnay Seven Springs Vineyard - USA, Oregon, Willamette Valley, Eola - Amity Hills (7/18/2020)
Served in Reidel Chardonnay Extreme stems. Initially a tad too cold, but the upside was in effect, it isolated the fruit character and certainly it was one the most gorgeous renditions of liquified white peach I can ever recall having. As the wine warmed, waves of mineralit appeared that gave a sensation of powdered stone on the back end. Extremely light in color, elegant, and just a smashingly good young OR Chardonnay. I cannot wait to try an 18 X Novo soon but it will be tough sledding to top this! (94 pts.)

Thanks for the tasting note. I have never had a W. Scott wine, but a couple of months ago I ordered 1 of each of Chard and Pinot (11 cuvees) and can not wait. BTW, Erica could not have been nicer, class act.
