2013 Sonoma Coast Old Vine Chardonnay Tasting Notes

The wines opens with aromas of toasted hazelnut, lemon curd and creme brûlée. It continues to unfold in layers of perfume: ginger snap, candied orange, cashew, followed by richly layered fruit hinting at dried apricot, key lime and blood orange. These intense flavors linger in a long rich finish, balancing weight with citrus zing. Enjoy now and over the next few years!
