From the winery:
Tasting Notes
The 2019 Burly Chardonnay is sourced from the Razi vineyard and produces an intense wine with aromas of pineapple and oak. At first swirl, complex oak, vanilla and butter leap from the glass. The palate has flavors of lemon and pear which are supported bt elegant minerality and lively acid. The sur lie aging rounds out this wine, creating a broad mid palate and a smooth lingering finish of oak and citruis.
Making the Wine
The grapes were picked early in the morning and came in cold. The grapes were pressed into new oak barrels and cold fermented by native yeast. The fermentation took 45 days at 65° F. The wine was then aged sur lie for 15 months.
