This cool and complex white has aromas and flavors of Amalfi lemons, salted yellow plums, salted butter and cedar. Hints of jasmine and ginger, too. It’s medium-bodied, zesty and pristine, with spicy and salty elements on the long finish. Drink or hold. ~ (94) James Suckling, JamesSuckling.com 2-20-2025

A pale silver/yellow hue, the 2022 Chardonnay Eola-Amity Hills is pretty on the nose, with notes of rocky earth, a suggestion of flint (although it’s not pronounced), fresh linen, powdery white flowers, dewy pear, and fresh lemon-lime citrus. Medium-framed, it is going to take time for this to flesh out, but its mineral drive and persistent texture are long on the palate. It’s electric on the palate, with a long, stony, pure finish. Drink 2025-2027. ~ (97) Audrey Frick, JebDunnuck.com 8-6-2024
