The cool growing region of Carneros allows us to keep the verve and complexity in our Chardonnay and delivers just the right amount of naturally bright acidity that works well when paired with the finest French oak. Aromas of fresh cantaloupe, jasmine blossom and pear are all underscored by subtle oak derived notes of brioche and crème brulee. On the palate, the character of the wine leans in the Californian direction, with cut melon, a touch of pineapple and Asian pear. This is all tied together by balanced structure and enough oak to add complexity without overwhelming the fruit.
