In the mouth, the wine is moderate weight but packs extraordinary depth of flavor ripe with lemon, rich creme brulee and caramel and a hint of minerality. This round yet delicate wine finishes with bright acidity and a creamy finish VarietalChardonnayComposition100% ChardonnayAcid5.0pH3.53AgingAged for 15 months in 30% new French oak with minimal bâtonnage.
