Note di degustazione
The 2014 Chardonnay Thieriot Vineyard is delicate, nuanced and expressive, with a slight hint of reduction that is present, but not at all overpowering. Translucent delicate and striking in its beauty. Slate, white orchard fruit, mint and white pepper give the 2014 its signature energy and high toned personality. This is another exquisite, highly nuanced Chardonnay in a range from Littorai full of highlights.

The 2014 Chardonnay B.A. Thieriot Vineyard is youthfully subdued at this early stage, offer suggestions of peach blossoms, grapefruit peel and yuzu, plus hints of allspice and beeswax. Light to medium-bodied and quite taut, the intensity of citrus and stone fruit is almost electric, with a lively backbone and long, mineral-laced finish. 290 cases were made.
Lemon peel, crushed rocks, mint, slate and sage are some of the many notes that race across the palate in the 2014 Chardonnay Thieriot Vineyard. The most precise and finely-cut of the 2014s Chardonnays, the Thieriot captures all the personality of this site. Floral, savory and mineral notes are pushed forward, while the fruit lies more in the background.
