2007 Reserve Chardonnay
|
|
For the Reserve Chardonnay our Winemaker, Dimitri Tchelistcheff, had us use barrels from the unique Finch Hollow vineyard which has a distinct terroir. Taking the winemaking one step further bottled it unfined and unfiltered so as to retain all the subtle flavor elements. This, along with aging 9 months in new French oak barrels and complete malo-lactic fermentation produced our most full-bodied wine with rich canary hues and true varietal essence that has an amazingly long, smooth finish gratifying even the red wine lover. This wine was ready to enjoy when released and should continue to drink beautifully for four to six years. |
