You can expect a beak of tropical mango, apricot, and pineapple. On the palate you'll experience slight toast with pear, green apple, and almond with a creamy consistency bursting with balanced acids.
The Chardonnay grapes are sourced from the Sleepy Hollow Vineyard, which is part of the Santa Lucia Highlands AVA in Monterey, CA. I blended 10% Viognier from the Simpson Meadows Vineyard in Madera in order to accentuate tropical aromatics. This Chard/Viognier blend was aged in 30% new French oak for 13 months.
