Wine Details
Price:
$24.00 per bottle
Description:
This wine is full of apple, pear and citrus notes with a honey, spice and hazelnut mouthfeel. To accomplish this, unique vineyard blocks were barrel fermented in French Burgundian oak barrels. At only 30% Malolactic fermentation and complemented with five months of barrel aging, our masterpiece remains fresh and crisp on the palate.

Varietal Definition
Chardonnay:
Chardonnay is by far the most widely planted grape crop in California and dominates California’s cooler, coastal, quality wine regions. The natural varietal ‘taste and smell’ of Chardonnay is surprisingly unfamiliar to many wine drinkers, as its true character is often guised with dominating winemaking signatures. Chardonnay’s rather subdued primary fruit characteristics lean toward the crisp fruitiness of apples, pears and lemon, but the variety’s full body is capable of supporting a host of complementary characteristics, such as oak, butter and vanilla. Regardless of what is the appropriate style for Chardonnay, the varietal continues to dominate vineyard plantings in every corner of the world. Close attention to clonal selection has made this broad geographic and climactic range of Chardonnay viable in thoughtful viticultural hands.
