93 Points James Suckling
Lemon curd and nutmeg aromas with a distinct freshness and texture. Everything is in balance, with a supple and refined character. The palate exhibits flint and minerals with bright citrus notes, followed by a wonderfully refreshing finish.

Supple yet crisp at heart, with expressive orange blossom, green apple and white peach flavors that glide on the vibrant finish.
 
92 Points Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2021 Chardonnay Yamhill-Carlton has deep scents of honey, hazelnut, toasted meringue and yellow apples. The medium-bodied palate features layers of ripe fruit made more complex by spice and mineral layers. It has a satiny texture, vibrant acidity and a long, gently creamy finish.
 
Winemaker Notes
Sourced from our estate vineyard in the Yamhill-Carlton sub-AVA, Gran Moraine 2021 Yamhill-Carlton Chardonnay opens with tropical fruit notes, a touch of minerality, and a pixelated gravely structure on the finish.
