Rich golden in color. Balanced oak and toast aromas transform into layers of vanilla and brioche amid pear and apple. A luscious wine on the palate; flavors progress with lime citrus, white peach and lemon curd. Texture is silky and rich with just enough firm acidity to achieve a balanced wine whose flavors linger on the palate. Enjoy now or cellar for 2 years.
"Medium yellow gold. Rich fruit runs through this Chardonnay from the first whiff to the long finish. Aromas and flavors of citrus and orchard fruit complemented by hints of brioche and toast. Hand sorted, whole cluster pressed and fermented with native yeasts with battonage through malo; aged in 25% new French oak for 10 months."
