2014 Special Select Chardonnay - Opal Moon
2014 Special Select Chardonnay - Opal Moon
Description
The 2014 Chardonnay grapes were grown on our coveted Bonneau Vineyard Estate. It is a blend of two distinct clones: Wente clone 17 & Carneros Martini clone 4. The wine has a light gold color with tantalizing aromas of tropical fruits, citrus, hazelnut, spice, and toasty oak. Its fresh acidity livens up the palate introducing flavors of pineapple, apricot, cream brulee, and sweet vanilla oak. Our Chardonnay offers a rich, silky, smooth texture on the palate that lengthens through to an elegant finish.
