WINEMAKER'S NOTES:
Upon the first swirl, the nose is greeted by a captivating aroma of orchard-fresh fruits and delicate floral notes. Hints of Meyer lemon and Granny Smith apple dominate the forefront, while nuances of white flowers and a subtle touch of vanilla from the new French oak barrels offer an enticing complexity. On the palate, this Chardonnay from Los Carneros offers a delightful and well-balanced experience. The gentle influence
of 9 months in new French oak provides a creamy texture and adds depth without overshadowing the fruit. Bright flavors of green apple and juicy pear take center stage, complemented by a refreshing citrus undertone. The oak aging contributes a subtle note of toasted almonds and a touch of baking spice.
