Winemaker Notes
Pale lemon with green hues. The aromatics are reminiscent of blossoms, flint and ripe peaches. The wine has a savory edge with flinty notes from the wild ferment. The palate is fine and creamy with a touch of nuttiness from the battonage. The fruit purity evolves with zingy citrus notes of lime and lemon. A refreshing, lip smacking acidity gives this wine lovely length and the finish is savory and textural.
Try with pan fried haloumi with lemon and parsley or chickpea, zucchini and carrot pancakes with a green mango salad.
One of the most popular and versatile white wine grapes, Chardonnay offers a wide range of flavors and styles depending on where it is grown and how it is made. While it tends to flourish in most environments, Chardonnay from its Burgundian homeland produces some of the most remarkable and longest lived examples. California produces both oaky, buttery styles and leaner, European-inspired wines. Somm Secret—The Burgundian subregion of Chablis, while typically using older oak barrels, produces a bright style similar to the unoaked style. Anyone who doesn't like oaky Chardonnay would likely enjoy Chablis.
