Description:
This is a particularly complex and layered vintage of our Sonoma Coast Chardonnay. A rich, golden hue, with just a touch of green, leads into aromas of pain grille, lemon zest, vanilla custard, and toasted almonds. Our signature floral character is still there, yet is balanced this year by an increased intensity of other components. On the palate there is a cascade of flavors from citrus, to green apple and pear, to sur lies yeastiness, to a lingering and subtle minerality. The texture is round and viscous with a bracing acidity that refreshes and invites another sip. While this wine will remain ready to enjoy upon release, it will also reward those who have the will power and patience to lay some down. It should drink well from the summer of 2004 through at least the summer of 2006, and we suspect even for 1-2 years after that. Serve "lightly" chilled.
