The 2017 Cougar Rock Vineyard Chardonnay is an absolutely beautiful release from Brick & Mortar. It opens with lovely aromas of ripe Meyer lemon, green apple, starfruit and floral scents which are joined by hints of white peach, crushed gravel and river rocks. On the palate this is focused and energetic, with a great acidic backbone along with delicious stone and orchard fruit flavors. It finishes with incredible precision and acidity that leaves you wanting more. The 2017 is showing extremely well today and should go on to age nicely over the next 7-10 years.
