Product Description
Winemaker Notes
Impressive in its youth, this is a wine to watch. A complex nose offers layers of white peach, spring florals and well integrated smoke. The palate is richly textured with fleshy stonefruit and lemon citrus. Our 2013 chardonnay is mouthfilling yet balanced with fresh acidity giving it shape and focus. An elegant wine with a lingering and lively finish
wine score
92 points Wine Advocate
"The 2014 Chardonnay possesses beautiful purity of apricot and pink grapefruit aromas with nuances of baking bread, honeycomb and cashews. Medium-bodied with a commendably satiny texture, it has seamless freshness and a nice long finish."
91 points Wine Spectator
"Features creamy overtones to the lemon meringue and vanilla pudding flavors, with spice and floral details adding complexity. The finish is juicy and refreshing."
