title: Foris 2016 Chardonnay (Rogue Valley)
description: This was barrel fermented in neutral oak, and not put through malolactic fermentation. A mix of apple, white peach and green-melon fruit opens up the core flavors, then it seems to stop short. The feeling of being attenuated may simply reflect the youth of the wine, or a need for further bottle age. Drink 2019 to 2025.
variety: Chardonnay
