Nose

Lively, with a generous display of vanilla, honey, lemon, citrus and butterscotch aromas,

Palate

Brilliant acidity puts everything in perspective and resolves into a long and lingering finish.

Bottling

Bottled: June 2004.

Winemaking

Rich without being heavy-handed, fruitful without being tutti-frutti, expressive of cooperage without being one-dimensional, our Napa Chardonnay is the epitome of balance.

Fermentation: Select Virginia Oak

Aging

Our 2003 Napa Chardonnay has been subtly oaked with French Marsannay barrels.

Select Virginia Oak, French Oak.
