A chartreuse-tinged yellow color introduces yeasty, creamy aromas that mingle with orange blossom, nectarines and apricots. Flavors of dried apricot, baked pear, and Meyer lemon curd mingle with roasted nuts and coalesce with a persistent, mineral streaked finish. So fun to drink now, but expect this wine to drastically improve with another 6 to 12 months of cellaring. This wine should provide 5-8 years of extraordinary drinking experiences.
Hazy golden-yellow in color, aromas of tangerine oil, Meyer lemon blossom, green apple skin, and yeasted dough that are highlighted by an underlying flinty, smoky component. Rich flavors of ripe Gravenstein apples, lemon curd tartlet, and roasted hazel nuts coalesce on a lingering, minerality marked finish. Drinking well now, but expect this wine to drastically improve with another 6 to 12 months of cellaring. This wine should provide 5-8 years of extraordinary drinking experiences.
A hazy, golden-green color introduced this very special California Chardonnay. Hand-crafted using old-world techniques and style it is barrel-fermented in 100% French oak. Bottled unfined and unfiltered, this wine exudes impeccable balance. Aromas of lemon curd and orange blossoms intermingled with croissants and wet stones. Flavors of Mirabelle plums, blood-orange zest and Gravenstein apple are heightened by a hint of anise and salty minerality. The crisp, persistent finish carries through to the next sip. Drink now or over the next 5-8 years.
