Note di degustazione
Cullen's 2010 Kevin John Chardonnay was whole bunch pressed and barrel fermented naturally in French oak, 2/3 new and 1/3 one year old. It underwent partial malo-lactic fermentation prior to being aged a further five months in barrel. The nose is intensely scented of ripe peaches, green mangos and guava with touches of brioche, cashews, meal and chopped fresh ginger. The medium-bodied palate fills the mouth with luscious stone fruit, toast and nut flavors with a beautifully creamy texture and crisp acid that gives lift long into the spice-laced finish. Delicious now, it will reward cellaring and drink best 2013 to 2020+. This is a truly great Kevin John! Importer: Old Bridge Cellars, Napa, CA; www.oldbridgecellars.com

Light gold. Intense, mineral-accented aromas of iodine, orange zest, talc and white flowers. Pliant in texture and nicely concentrated, offering precise citrus and peach flavors and a strong overlay of dusty minerals. Finishes clean, bright and very long, with an echoing lemon note.
