Description

Farmed from a single vineyard site within Napas Oak Knoll district, the wine opens with aromas of apricot, pear and citrus peel. Flavors of crisp apple, Bartlett pear and lemon lead with balanced acidity and freshness finishing off the palate. Though expressive and flavorful, this more restrained and delicate style of Chardonnay reflects the cooler climate of our southern Napa vineyard.The nose shows off bright red fruit and floral notes, layered with baking spice, and a touch of oak. The wine washes over the palate with plum, red cherry along with a lift of blackberry and earthiness. Though appreciable today, it will easily cellar for 5-7 years.
