Chardonnay 2007 - Duck Pond Winery

$12.95 per bottle

Full of zesty and fruity flavors, our 2007 Chardonnay reflects the warm sunny weather of the Columbia Valley. Rugged and desolate, the valleys of Eastern Washington provide consistent heat and sun to perfectly ripen the fruit. Good fruit is the first essential quality of good wine. Barrel fermentation adds to the texture and body of the wine. A clean finish and bright acidity allow the wine to go with a variety of light to medium bodied foods: salad, seafood, chicken or pasta.

A slightly lighter hand with the oak for the 2007 vintage results is a wine with a little more zip and fantastic balance. The vintage was of average crop size and excellent ripe fruit.

87 Points – Wine Spectator Daily Pick. “Smooth in texture, with a lively feel to the grapefruit and pear flavors, lingering on the crisp, spicy finish. Drink now through 2011.”
