RouteStock Description
A dry and refreshing wine that still holds weight, this 100% Chardonnay bottling is derived from two vineyard sites, one in Napa and one on the Sonoma side of the cool Carneros regions, using two different clones (Wente and Dijon 77). Temperature-controlled fermentation in stainless steel tanks preserves youthful brightness, while seven months of aging in mostly used French oak allow it to soften, rounding out this lovely expression of an iconic terroir.
Tasting Notes: The wine shows a beautiful seductive aroma of Meyer lemon, English thyme and ginger. The wine is vibrant and lively on the pallet, dancing between lemon, pear, custard and tarragon. There is a beautiful balance between the slight richness and inviting mouthfeel of the texture and the nice freshness of the finish. This is a complex wine that is not dominated by alcohol, oak or sugar, instead is integrated with all elements to bring great joy!
