WINEMAKER NOTES:
Barrel-fermented and aged on lees for 18 months, early oak integration helps cement the structure of a multifaceted wine. Brilliant medium-straw in the glass, with notes of honeysuckle, white peach and lemon zest. The backbone of Mt. Veeder Chardonnay gives heft to the mouthfeel, while more northerly vineyards lock in the freshness in every sip. Seemingly something for everyone in this wine. 30% new Latour oak barrels frame the lasting finish, mingling a light toast with crisp citrus.
