Lingua Franca Estate Chardonnay 2021 (Eola-Amity Hills, OR)

95PTS J.D.

Producer Notes: 2021 has a brilliant yellow color with green highlights. The entry is round while the midpalate reveals a backbone of acidity and minerality, with citrus peel, green apple, honeysuckle and river stones. The wine is richly textured with a long, balanced finish.

Jeb Dunnuck, 95 Points: Aged in 20-30% new oak in 500-liter barrels, the 2021 Chardonnay Estate is a bright straw hue and takes on more depth, with aromas of jasmine, light flint, fresh pear, and lemon curd. Medium-bodied, it offers a delicate balance of pristine fruit with fresh acidity and a focused feel without feeling harsh. It’s delicious right now, but it will continue to improve over the next few years and drink well over the coming 10.

Wine Enthusiast, 94 Points: Lingua Franca has another Chardonnay hit on their hands. The wine's aromas are a simple meal of grilled lemons rubbed with sage and butter. A tiny mineral note flutters in the background. Vigorous acidity lights up flavors ranging from Golden Delicious apples and brown butter to roasted filberts and wet rocks. Pair with a seafood salad and an Edith Piaf record.
