The 2017 Chardonnay is complex, multi layered with flinty and “match stick” wrapped in vanilla and butterscotch aromas created by the barrel ferment, with it’s 30% new toasty French oak. The rich fruit gives a linear lingering mouth feel of citrus, honeysuckle and fine tannins.  The wine is very approachable now, but will benefit from a couple more years of cellaring.
