Barrel fermented with complete malolactic fermentation, the wine is aged on its lees for ten months in 50% new Burgundy. This barrel regimen gives the wine weight. Apple blossom and honeysuckle aromas are the high notes with reductive earth flavors forming the basis. The lengthy finish bodes well for a long evolution.

The 2017 Chardonnay Estate is beautifully expressed this vintage, scented of warm citrus, honeycomb and a singular undercurrent of spices. The palate is satiny with full, ripe fruit energized by bright freshness and mineral character, and the wine finishes very long, pure and uplifted. It improved slowly over several days and will benefit from time in the cellar or a long decant.
