Tasting Notes Lightly yellow color with a youthful greenish tinge sets the stage for perfectly ripe aromas of apple, lemon meringue, and key lime as the wine warms up. Notes of toasted brioche, marzipan and subtle reduction validate the wine’s non-oxidative handling, and imply the foundation for further improvement with cellaring. On the palate, broad, expansive flavors now include yellow peach, grilled pineapple, and mixed citrus…which do not budge in the glass, even after several hours of air. While acidity is brisk and racy upon release, it is also a signature terrior element from this cool-climate sight and proportionately balanced with the rest of the wine. This is an exceptional vintage for our Rachael Chardonnay and should continue to improve in the bottle for many more years, we expect through at least 2021-2025 with good storage. A fabulous pairing with pulled pork!
