Winemaker tasting notes

“Aromas of bright cherry and red apple in the background lead into an explosion of fresh blueberries, crisp pear, and subtle lemon zest flavors on the palate. The wine has a fine, delicate mousse, with exceptional weight. The extended aging provides a satifying savory texture and notes of hazelnut and toasted brioche, this wine showcases the perfect blend of creamy Chardonnay and rich Pinot Noir that culminate in a lovely, plush finish.”
