Accolades for Chardonnay
2007 Chardonnay one of the 100 Best Washington Wines
"She accomplishes this task masterfully with this delicious wine."
"While French-born and trained Forgeron Cellars winemaker Marie-Eve Gilla excels at making red wines, white wine is where her passion lies. With her Chardonnay she says she sought to make a wine more Burgundian in style than generally seen in Washington. She accomplishes this task masterfully with this delicious wine. Nose is marked by light spices, mineral, and grass. Crisp and clean on the palate with bright, slightly citric acidity. 100 percent Chardonnay. Stillwater Creek, Weinbau, Gamache, Den Hoed, Crawford, Lonesome Springs, and Underwood Mountain Vineyards. Aged in neutral oak (30 percent new). 14.1 Alcohol. 1,221 cases produced."
