2023 Passé Oregon Chardonnay

This single-clone Espiguette 352 Chardonnay opens with aromas of salinity, petrichor, fresh apple, and honey. The dense, full palate reveals layers of stone fruit, apricot and nectarine, complemented by a subtle dustiness. Firm acidity drives the finish with bright notes of Meyer lemon and orange zest. While youthful, it is approachable now and promises graceful aging with added complexity over time.
