tasting notes:
"This 2000 Chardonnay has a delicious aroma of ripe apples and figs, and the flavors are long and rich, with a finish of crisp acidity that will balance even the richest of foods. We started picking the grapes for this vintage in September, 2000. After crushing and pressing each lot of freshly picked grapes, we barrel fermented the juice in small French and American oak barrels. Extended lees contact softened the finish and added complexity to the aroma. Supple, rich and full of fruit and toasty oak flavors, this wine can be enjoyed now, or it may be cellared for an additional three to five years from the vintage date." Chuck Devlin, winemaker
