Complex and classic, this chardonnay displays generous aromas of crème brûlée, ripe honeydew melon and a touch of baking spice. On the palate, the luscious rich texture envelopes the taste buds delivering wave after wave of Asian pear, cantaloupe, Meyer lemon, hazelnut cream and a distinct crushed chalk minerality. Nuances of toasty oak surround the ripe fruit building the length on the palate and sustaining a steady evolution of flavors for a clean fresh finish.
This Chardonnay is made from grapes grown at the Sangiacomo Vineyard in the Carneros region of the southern Sonoma Valley.
