Winemaker Notes
The 2020 Chardonnay was harvested by hand in mid-August, cluster sorted, whole cluster pressed and fermented and aged in neutral oak barrel, puncheon, and foudre before bottling. The wine opens with lifted aromatics of white flowers and fresh tarragon supported by a lovely fruit set of Anjou pear, tart pineapple, and cantaloupe. On the palate the wine expands, broadening the frame, bringing layers of texture and energy with secondary flavors of lemon oil, mineral, and almond. The finish is long with lingering saline notes, subtle tropics, orchard fruit, and flint rock.
