Tasting Notes
"This Chardonnay has a vibrant blonde color and a nose packed with citrus and floral character. Hints of fresh tangerine and lemon are subtlety enhanced by French oak influence. The careful selection and gentle handling of our Chardonnay fruit results in a finished wine boasting intense fruit flavor and balanced acids. Our Winemaker Francois Cordesse and his team combine 31% new, and 69% seasoned French oak barrels for 100% barrel fermenting and barrel aging." - Francois Cordesse, Winemaker
Acclaim
89 Points - "The very good 17,500-case 2002 Chardonnay displays elegant notes of lemon zest, orange marmalade, subtle wood, and a hint of butter in its attractive, well-delineated style. It should drink well for 2-3 years." - Robert M. Parker, Jr., The Wine Advocate
88 Points - "Aromas of lemon drop and earth. Sweet, fat and a bit exotic, with flavors of pear, mirabelle and spices. Rather fat, lush Chardonnay, but a tad blurry in the middle. Finishes with good spice character." - Stephen Tanzer, International Wine Cellar
