TN: 2018 Walter Scott Chardonnay La Combe Verte (USA, Oregon, Willamette Valley)

  • 2018 Walter Scott Chardonnay La Combe Verte - USA, Oregon, Willamette Valley (6/11/2021)
    Slightest hints of reduction on the nose. Very pure and crisp palate, with tart green apple, grapefruit and lively acid spine. Very edgy and lively energy at the moment. Drinking pretty good now, but seems it could soften a bit and drink well for a few years. Excellent entry-level stuff and a QPR champ.

Atta boy Dennis - no real surprises here, thanks for the note. I haven’t had a LCV yet as I tend to kick in a few extra bucks and just go for the C. Anne. Time to remedy this summer. Cheers.

I’ve just polished a 2019–also lovely; it may be a little more lush than the 2018, if I am remembering properly. These are just a ridiculous QPR–probably the best I know in chardonnay. And Dennis’ note gives a very good sense of why that’s so.
