Overview
Aromas of grilled bread, apricot, orange, white plum, and a hint of spice greet you on the nose. Ten percent of the Chardonnay in this blend fermented in oak, and the resulting spice carries into the creamy palate. Notes of lemon custard, cherry, and orange lead into a smooth and toasty finish.
Occasion
Sautéed shrimp served over linguine with a lemony cream sauce would be a perfect match for this wine.
