This week I am working on the philosophy of wine paper I am presenting on November 1st to the Southwestern Philosophical Society. I’ve been struggling with it a bit and last night I needed some inspiration. I was looking for wine’s soul and I knew exactly where to find it. I am not shy in my gushing over @bigtablefarm wines. Clare and Brian get the spirituality of wine, they guide it along by doing less, not more. The 2017 Eola-Amity Hills Chardonnay was exactly what I needed! I was dazzled by it’s rich straw color (possibly a little skin contact?) as I poured it into my favorite @zalto_glasses. It delivers gentle notes of ripe fruit, fall baking spice, bees wax and toasted graham cracker. The palate is elegant and round, with great structure. Texturally It has a oily, salty quality that I love. Each sip makes me want to take another sip. And gastronomically this quality paired great with the @cookinglight Grilled Rosemary Chicken with Pumpkin and Sage Farro Risotto. This wine is available now! Not bad for a Monday! What wine do you turn to for inspiration? #winelife #winewriter #foodandwinepairing #eeeeeats #forkyeah #chardonnay #youcansipwithus #wvwines #eolaamityhills #bigtablefarm #cookinglight #winenight #womemwhowine #wineonmytime #wineinspiration @wvwines @eolaamityhillsava @oregonwineboard
