A review on the 2006 Rex Hill Chardonnay, Oregon by Corporate Sommelier of Just Grapes, Don Sritong during their Global Grape Series Series, Session #6, Chardonnay.
Colour is straw with green hues. The wine displays pristine Margaret River Chardonnay fruit, typical of the Leeuwin vineyard. The delicate and well integrated nose displays pungent sweet peach and ripe pear skin and melon flavours which are in harmony with a seamless integration of French oak. These lovely gentle flavours carry over onto the palate which is enhanced with some richness from the lees stirring, providing a creaminess on the palate and pristine peach flavours from the fruit. A wine of medium weight, it has length and structure from the zingy acid on the finish with a harmonious balance between the delicate fruit flavours and the specially selected French oak barriques. This wine is showing all the hallmarks of the great Leeuwin Chardonnays, freshness and clean acid with intense fruit flavours as a young wine which will allow the wine flavours to develop in time in the bottle.
