A new line of wines from Le Clos, this time it's not vineyard specific
Le Clos Jordanne 2019 Jordan Village Chardonnay
($24.95 - available at the winery and online)
Le Clos Jordanne 2019
Chardonnay, Jordan Village
A new wine for the Clos but
this one is not a single vineyard offering, instead it's a three-vineyard blend
taken from the Estate vineyard plus Talon and Claystone vineyards. This 2019
Chardonnay has beautiful acidity that helps to balance this intensely fruit-forward
wine that has notes of saline plus peach, apple cobbler, hints of pineapple all
culminating with a buttery-spicy feel to the finish. The fruit comes across
sweet across the mid-palate, but that acidity helps to keep everything in check
and manages to balance it out ... Bottom line here: nice complexity with a long
finish. Price: $24.95 – Rating: ****+
