Alternating cool and warm weather brought about an exceptional 2005 vintage for
white wines, resulting in an intense and full bodied, yet very elegant
Chardonnay. Showing a green/yellow tint reminiscent of a classic Burgundian
Chardonnay. Aromas of pear, honeysuckle, and creme brulee fill your senses. At
the first sip, your palate is enveloped with citrus, mint and white peaches. A
huge viscous mouthfeel balanced with a nice acidity leads to a long, luscious
finish. |
