Because of the different growing styles of the 3 clones used in our Estate Chardonnay, the picks were scattered from mid-August to mid-September.  High in both minerality and acidity, this chardonnay is bright upfront, with a touch of lemon butter and brine, with a surprising weight to the mid-palate and an infinite finish.  This wine spent 16 months in barrel before bottling.  It was aged in 100% French oak barrels, 30% of which were new, predominately from the DAMY cooperage.
