Columbia Crest Description
This Chardonnay opens with intense fresh fruit aromas of apples, pears, and melons, joined by signature characters of crème Brûlée, caramel and graham cracker. Ripe orchard fruit flavors are joined by creamy, buttery notes and balanced by lively acidity.
Pair with chicken salad with apples and brie cheese, crab cakes, and herb crusted pork chops.
James Suckling: 90 Points
Aromas of sliced apples, lemon pith, crushed sage, raw almonds and stones. Medium-bodied, creamy and mild with crisp acidity and a crunchy stone-fruit texture. Flavorful finish.
Vinous Media: 89 Points
A pleasantly floral mix of baked apples tinged with vanilla custard and white flowers lifts up from the 2021 Chardonnay Grand Estates. It's soothingly soft and round on the palate, with sweet spices complementing its ripe orchard fruits. The 2021 leaves nuances of tropical melon and candied lemon to linger while finishing with admirable freshness.
