Winemaker Michael Martini Notes
This wine exhibits lively fruit flavors of pear and green apple, balanced with subtle, rich flavors of vanilla and spice from the oak barrels that linger on the palate. Its bright, crisp acidity allows the wine to showcase the intense aromas and flavors characteristic of cool-climate Chardonnay. The Louis M. Martini Chardonnay is well structured, with layers of complexity and richness that will develop over time.
