WINEMAKING NOTES:
Our 2011 Barrel Fermented Chardonnay is rich and creamy with enticing aromas of caramelized baked apple, vanilla crème brulee, roasted hazelnuts and buttery shortbread. The palate showcases an intriguing medley of vibrant citrus, pear and walnut flavors finishing with a lemon zest zing and toasted brioche notes. This finely balanced wine is firmly structured while retaining a delightfully refreshing crispness.
