The Conqueror 2013 Chardonnay, Horse Heaven Hills, $26
By Great Northwest Wine on October 4, 2015
Seattle-based Precept Wine operates several large plantings in Washington’s Horse Heaven Hills, and two of them — Canoe Ridge Vineyard and The Benches — are featured under this new label. It’s reminiscent of some of heady and hedonistic California Chardonnays, starting with aromas of toasted oak, almond butter and sweet apricot jam. Inside, it features round flavors of butterscotch, crushed pears and lemon curd with a cleansing finish of lemon pith.
