Winemaker Notes
Aroma: Peach blossom, wet stone, lime zest and citrus notes dominate this cool vintage Chardonnay. A nice roasted nut and clove spice element complement the natural minerality.
Taste: A bright beam of focused floral and citrus notes lead into a rich mid-palate with hints of vanillin and sweet oak.
