Domaine Serene 2000 Clos du Soleil Vineyard Chardonnay (Willamette Valley)

Country: US / Clos du Soleil Vineyard
Variety: Chardonnay Oregon
Winery: Domaine Serene / Willamette Valley

Dijon clone again. This has just the vaguest hint of onion, but otherwise is much improved over this property’s ’99. There is good, juicy, crisp fruit mixing apple/apricot and light citrus. Balanced acids and a well integrated middle that leads into a somewhat hot, stiff finish. Young and edgy, but well made.
