2017 CHARDONNAY

This wine has a sunny yellow color with aromas of golden apples, white peach, apricots and honeysuckle, with hints of vanilla, warm spices and ripe banana. The finish is long and lush, with a crisp acidity balancing the fruit and spices. Pair this Chardonnay with poultry, veal, seafood pasta dishes in creamy sauces, grilled shrimp and salmon.

The grapes for this Chardonnay were harvested by hand in order to preserve the integrity of the berries. The fruit was picked early in the morning and delivered cold to our facility. We utilize low pressure for a very long time to extract the clear juice out of the berries. The juice is then settled overnight at a cold temperature, racked off the heavy juice lees and moved directly into barrels. The yeast lees are stirred every two weeks for 3 to 4 months in order to enhance the structure of this wine.
