Martin Woods Koosah Chard '21

Scoring 93 points for its Burgundian elegance, this Chardonnay from Oregon's Eola-Amity Hills rivals white Burgundy at half the price. The 2021 vintage offers complex aromas of lemon curd, toasted almond, and wet stone. The medium-bodied palate delivers layered flavors of yellow apple, brioche, and a distinctive saline minerality, with vibrant acidity and a long, nuanced finish. Aged 12 months in French oak (30% new), it achieves perfect balance between richness and freshness. Pair with lobster thermidor, roasted poultry, or creamy pasta dishes. A Chardonnay that will convert even the most ardent ABC (Anything But Chardonnay) drinkers.
