Estimate
This chardonnay shows aromas of dried white flowers, sliced apples, pears, peaches and some apricots. Honey notes, too. Medium to full body, compact texture and a bright and vibrant finish. Hints of cream.
Pungent pear and honeydew qualities on the nose; floral, ginger, vanilla and smoky mineral nuances add complexity. Juicy, seamless and well-concentrated, offering lush orchard and pit fruit, melon and honey flavors that flesh out and become spicier with aeration. The mineral and floral qualities drive an impressively persistent, seamless finish that features lingering smokiness and a strong pear nectar quality.
Bright, tart and very tasty, this ultraripe cuvée brings lush apple sauce, peach cobbler and Meyer lemon flavors. It's vivid, detailed and framed with toasty new oak.
