Note di degustazione
The 2017 Chardonnay One Sixteen aged from four to 15 months in several vessels: 34% new French oak, 30% stainless, 18% foudres, 3% concrete eggs and 1% concrete tanks. It opens with aromas of roasted almonds, toast, white peach, gunflint and dried chamomile with touches of lemon pith. The palate is light to medium-bodied with toasty fruits, well-woven but refreshing acidity and a long, savory finish. This is a touch rounder and more open than its 2016 counterpart. 3,400 cases produced.

This has a very attractive, fresh array of lemons and chalky almonds and stones. The palate has a smooth, glossy and gently creamy edge with a fresh, pithy yellow-citrus and peach finish. Drink now.
A beautiful Chardonnay from the Russian River Valley brought up in 34% new French oak, the 2017 Chardonnay One Sixteen sports a medium gold color as well as a rich, powerful bouquet of caramelized citrus, white currants, toasted hazelnuts, and brioche. Deep, rich, medium to full-bodied, and beautifully textured, it has flawless balance, bright acidity, and is a profound Chardonnay that will stand beside the finest white Burgundies.
