Chalk Hill Estate Chardonnay

This 2014 Sonoma Coast Chardonnay is a beautiful medium golden color. This wine displays expressive fruit aromas of yellow apple and lemon curd, along with classic oak expression notes of toasted hazelnut, vanilla custard and crème brûlée. The flavor on the palate is more elegant and cool climate style, showing varietal intensity and minerality, but with extended notes of baked yellow apples and peach cobbler. The fruit shows a rich, textural body from barrel fermentation, but is reigned in by good acidity and lemon zest.
