2020 Nicolas-Jay, Affinités, Chardonnay, Willamette Valley, Oregon, USA

Description

The 2020 Affinités Chardonnay opens with citrus blossom, lemon curd and quince. These seductive aromatics give way to hints of river rock, fresh rain and baked apples. 

Minerality and wet stone on the palate reveal flavours of lemon zest and tart candied apples. Tightly-grained French oak nuance and fruit-driven intensity add weight and power as the wine continues to drive forward.

This impressive chardonnay is defined by its linear precision and consistent tension. There is a remarkable purity here, an electricity of bound energy that cannot be mistaken for anything other than a wine of significance and ageability.

About this wine

Willamette Valley

Willamette Valley

Celebrated for its cool climate, volcanic soils, and diverse terroirs, Willamette Valley, Oregon, is a prime region in America for growing Pinot Noir. The valley’s unique conditions produce wines with bright acidity, complexity, and balance. While Pinot Noir is the flagship grape, other varietals like Chardonnay, Pinot Gris, and Riesling also thrive here.
