Winemaker Notes
A fresh Chardonnay with bright acidity and a hint of lemon curd and briny ocean air. After fermenting and spending twelve months in French oak barrels, followed by an additional six months in stainless tanks, this wine was bottled unfiltered and lightly fined, creating a balanced palate of textured minerality framed with citrus fruit and a long, creamy finish.

This terrific wine opens with rich flavors that run the gamut from butter to citrus, apple and papaya. It's long, creamy and salty, with precise and wonderfully complex flavors. Fermented in oak with native yeast, it was then aged another year in oak and a further six months in tank.
