WINEMAKING

Pressing of the grapes before settling to obtain sufficient clarity - alcoholic fermentation between 20°C  and 24°C  / 68°F and 75°F - malolactic conversion in vats, racking and fining followed by an aging on fine lees in vats. 

 

TASTING NOTES

Bright pale yellow color with golden hue. Intense and elegant nose exhibiting white flowers such as jasmine and honeysuckle. Hints of ripe peach and baked apples. Nuances of butter and vanillar add complexity and finesse. Harmonious and rich palate with flavors of toast and ginger that deliver layers to this full-bodied chardonnay. Lengthy and floral finish.
