A lovely ripe Chardonnay that is aged in 30% new French oak barrels and undergoes 85% malolactic fermentation uses grapes from the famed Gap’s Crown vineyard which is a favorite of mine for Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. Succulent notes of ripe yellow pear, fresh peach, honeysuckle, and tropical tones are all present, ending with a slightly fruity and lengthy finish. Only 150 cases produced.
