Cakebread Cellars Chardonnay

Colour: White Style: Dry
Producer: Cakebread Cellars
Description:
Grown in the cool Carneros conditions that maintain excellent balance between fruit characters and acidity in grapes. We ferment and age this wine in French oak barrels, and leave it on the yeast lees for months to enhance texture and complexity. Floral aromas mingle with fresh citrus, orange blossom, and white peach characters, and the palate is weighty yet balanced, with a mouth-coating texture and a clean, mineral finish.
Tasting Notes:
Enchanting floral and golden apple aromas introduce pure, concentrated melon, white peach and lively citrus flavours complemented by hints of vanilla and mineral. Rich and full-bodied, yet elegant and finely structured, the wine boasts a long, refreshing finish highlighting spiced apple and mineral tones.
