Note di degustazione
A blend showcasing the many aspects, clones, soil types, and other properties of the estate. The apparently ‘represent the most complete wines in our portfolio’. 34% was aged in new French oak, 56% in neutral French oak and 10% in stainless steel for 11 months. Light and floral on the nose. Lots of acidity. Very youthful. But pure and refined. Almost lemon juice! And quite a phenolic grip on the end. (JR)

Starting with the appellation 2018 Chardonnay Estate, this wine has a vivid gold hue as well as classy notes of sliced apple, nectarines, and honeyed flowers, with just a hint of salinity and minerality. It's elegant, beautifully balanced, and has a great finish, all while staying in the more vibrant, fresh style of this estate.
The 2018 Chardonnay Estate is soft, open-knit and inviting. Light tropical accents add character to the orchard fruit flavors in this attractive, mid-weight offering. The 2018 finishes with superb persistence, impeccable balance and brilliant saline notes that knit all the elements together. This is such a classy, polished wine.
