title: Seven of Hearts 2009 Crawford Beck Vineyard Chardonnay (Eola-Amity Hills)
description: An elegant, compelling Chardonnay, its fruit accented with lemon, honey and lime. Low cropping of Dijon clone 76 has concentrated the flavors (and the alcohol—a surprising 15.7%) without turning the wine into an overblown fat boy. Nuanced and long, it is one of the most satisfying Chardonnays to come out of Oregon in recent memory.
variety: Chardonnay
designation: Crawford Beck Vineyard
