This Wente clone Chardonnay, sourced from the Boushey and Crawford Vineyards, was released later, given an additional four months of oak treatment. The resultant wine is a fantastic effort by superstar winemaker Giles Nicault. This begins with aromas of toasty oak, and butterscotch and apricot. The palate shows a really nice weight and mouthfeel with a lovely texture without being heavy. Vanilla cream, banana and butterscotch flavors all mingle beautifully in the glass.
