Winemaker Dan Kessler Notes
Estate grown fruit fermented and aged in neutral and 20% new French oak Barrels. This wine is a 50:50 blend of our clone 76 and 95 Chardonnay with 100% ML and aged sur lie with bâtonnage for 10 months. Aromas of
tangerine, pear, and chamomile compliment flavors of green apple, pear tart, lemon curd and graham cracker. Fresh and energetic, its bright acid nicely balances its lean texture, making it an ideal drinker alone or with food. This wine’s medium long, vibrant and very clean finish reminds one of its coastal origins.
