Tasting Notes
Our 2001 Estate Chardonel boasts intense, complex fruit aromas of honey, apple, pineapple augmented by toasty oak tones and a hint of vanilla. Deep, dense and full on the palate, it boasts a remarkably long, toasty, creamy finish. This intensely flavored Chardonel is limited to 600 bottles.
