Chardonnay Reserve 2022
In Stock
Our Reserve Chardonnay is just that -- the best of the best, reserved just for you. Made from only the highest quality of the Chardonnay grapes we grow, and with inspiration from Burgundy winemaking techniques, this beauty is then aged 9 months in oak (57% of that in French oak, if you’re curious). All to say, our Reserve Chardonnay lives up to the label, with complex aromas, and a fruitiness balanced with hints of poached pear and brioche. Balance here is key, and this one hits it.
Nose: nutmeg, ginger, golden raisin, beeswax, honeysuckle
Palate: poached pear, brioche, caramelized leeks, cantaloupe, yellow apple
Finish: light oak, high acid, medium body, light dryness
