RULO WALLA WALLA VALLEY CHARDONNAY 2010

Details

Appellation: Walla Walla Valley Variety: 100% Chardonnay

Vineyards

This wine is a blend of two chardonnay vineyards, Birch Creek and Ausydna (planted in 2008 in 'the rocks' of the ancient Walla Walla Riverbed).

Tasting Notes

Light golden color. Very forward nose of honeycomb/beeswax, apricot and nectarine with a rich barrel fermented oak overlay.

Good acid in the mouth keeps the richness from barrel fermentation and malo-lactic fermentation in check. Tropical fruit flavors from Birch Creek vineyard with mineral and stone fruits from Ausydna vineyard give this wine a beautiful mid-palate and finish.

The Birch Creek barrels were put through malo-lactic fermentation while the Ausydna barrels were not. A mix of new and more neutral French oak barrels were used and the wine was left sur lies for ten months before bottling.

Birch Creek Vineyard

Tasting Notes

Medium straw yellow color. Aromas of baked apple and poached pear, underlying smells of Brioche and toasted oak fill the glass. A luscious, viscous Chardonnay in the mouth, showing its barrel fermented upbringing and partial malo-lactic fermentation. A full, rich flavored wine.

Tasting Notes

Pale straw yellow. Lemon curd, ginger and white flowers in the nose. In the mouth, lightly toasted oak with creamy, leesy notes.

The wine has a slightly smokey, nutty nose of fruit and baking spices. Pear and melon are most apparent in the mouth with a creamy texture added from sur lies aging. A rich but not flabby version of Chardonnay. This wine is fermented in French oak barrels.

Details

Appellation: Wahluke Slope Variety: 100% Chardonnay

Tasting Notes

Greenish yellow hue. Nose of white plum and pear with hints of talc and chalk. Balanced in the mouth with flavors of poached pear and crisp apple. Hints of lemon heighten all the flavors of this crisp wine.

RULO SUNDANCE CHARDONNAY 2011

Details

Appellation: Wahluke Slope Variety: 100% Chardonnay

Vineyard

Sundance Vineyard

Tasting Notes

Light straw in color. Aromas of saline sea breeze, minerals and hints of melon in the nose. Still a nice yeasty element in the nose as well.

A wall of minerals and stone fruits engage your palate on entry. Great viscosity and length for a wine of such high acid and low pH.

Since 2006, we have been fermenting this vineyard in stainless steel barrels because we feel some elements of Sundance vineyard are best expressed without oak overlays. This is the closest thing to Chablis around.

RULO SUNDANCE CHARDONNAY 2009

Details

Appellation: Wahluke Slope Variety: 100% Chardonnay

Vineyard

The fruit is sourced from the Sundance Vineyard in the Wahluke Slope AVA.

Tasting Notes

Very light straw with green hue in color. Elements of citrus rind and mint mixed with oyster shell and stone minerality. Very pointed and powerful. A brisk entry of lemongrass, melon and the classic Sundance Vineyard Lucky Stripe lemon/lime chewing gum. Focused acids, yet for a wine this chiseled, the viscosity is surprisingly rich. The finish comes full circle with citrus fruits and wet stone. We think this tastes as closely to a Chablis as any domestic wine we've tasted.

RULO SUNDANCE CHARDONNAY 2008

Details

Appellation: Wahluke Slope Variety: 100% Chardonnay

Vineyard

The fruit is sourced from the Sundance Vineyard in the Wahluke Slope AVA.

Tasting Notes

Pale yellow with a hint of light green. Aromas of pear and apple plus a whiff of talc on the nose. Stainless steel barrel fermentation lets the core of stone fruits shine through with a hint of that Sundance signature 'Lucky Strip' lemon/lime gum flavor. A great wine with roast chicken.

Details

Vineyard

Boushey

Tasting Notes

A traditional Rhone blend. Light pale yellow/green. Gooseberries, melon rind and green apple dominate the nose. Stone fruit and lime flavors backed with brisk acidity carry through to a long minerally finish.
