Winemaker Tom Westberg Notes
Elegant and expressive, our 2008 Chardonnay Carneros opens with vibrant aromas of white peach, citrus, white flowers, honeycomb and crème brûlée. Complex stone fruit, baked apple and pear flavors expand across the palate, culminating in a lingering, creamy finish. Barrel fermentation and aging add weight and notes of toasted hazelnut to the palate. Our Chardonnay’s luscious texture and bright, balanced acidity make it an ideal wine to pair with seafood, chicken and rich or creamy first courses and entrées.
