2011 Sempre Vive Chardonnay

2011 was a cold year and tough on most varieties but Chardonnay did very well because of the flexibility in styles that it can do well. This 2011 Chardonnay is a non malolactic style with only a light oak touch, a charming and delicate wine with a drier finish.

The nose has fresh pineapple and lemon chiffon pie, with a hint of light vanilla. The palate is fresh, crisp, and bright with green apple fruit and again a light pineapple flavor. Finish is light and clean, encouraging the next step.
