PENCE Chardonnay, Santa Rita Hills 'Estate' 2018

Barrel fermented and aged in 25% new French oak puncheons for 16 months, this Pence Estate Chardonnay has a slightly reductive flinty nose of candied lemon peel, ripe green apple, white nectarine and a touch of oak. This wine delivers very high acidity even though it has gone through full malolactic fermentation and beams with flavors of white ripe peach, underripe pineapple, sweet cinnamon and crushed wet stones. 432 cases made
