This limited production Chardonnay was named for the winery founder's wife. They have utilized 20% new French oak for this wine with batonage as well. The wine begins with bright aromatics of lemon curd, pink grapefruit, wild mushroom and Granny Smith apple. This leads to flavors of nectarine pit, Pink Lady apple, vanilla cream, Crème brûlée and cantaloupe. This has lovely mid-palate weight and intensity through the finish.
