Winemaker tasting notes

Nose: "The perfectly ripe Chardonnay grapes lend the wine its aromas of ripe, sweet fruit complemented by subtle oaky notes."

Palate: "The palate is rich and ripe with a luxurious texture that coats the palate. The Pinot noir and Meunier grapes complete the wine's broad, luscious, smooth and juicy character. The finish is energetic and fresh."
