2008 Barrel Fermented Chardonnay
TASTING NOTES
An elegant wine with both presence and delicacy. The complex ripe nose offers aromas of white flowers, pears and roasted nuts. On the palate it shows a luscious and soft texture implemented by a creamy fruity palate of yellow core fruits followed by a great minerality. Bright acids elongate the finish with hints of toast, nuts and exotic fruit zests.
