Arrowood Reserve Speciale Chardonnay 1998

The focus in this stylish Reserve wine is on fruit. While oak is part of the complexity, it is never purposely fashioned as the dominant character. The real uniqueness of our Reserve Chardonnay is its flavor intensity and luxurious, almost viscous mouthfeel. To emphasize that richness even more, we do not polish filter our Reserve Chardonnay, leaving it with forward aromas of peach, green apple and orange blossom, with an exotic hint of honey and tropical fruit and spice in the background. The lingering toasty oak finish is complemented by butterscotch, creamy vanilla and clove notes.
