Tbd Wines Chardonnay "BROSSEAU" Chalone 750mL
Vintage: | 2021 |
---|---|
Description: | The Chalone appellation is unique in that volcanic limestone soil interspersed with decomposed granite deposits resemble Burgundian soils in France. The vineyard sits 1800 feet above the Salinas Valley Floor on a bench on the west side of the Gavilan Mountains. It receives less than 10 inches of rain annually and has dramatic temperature variations, night to daytime highs. The Brosseau family transitioned to organic farming in 2006 and have been Certified Organic for 10 years. Wines of this region have distinct minerality and great aging potential. Light golden in color with a brilliant appearance. Tropical flavors plus kiwi, cantaloupe and melon deliver rich mouthfeel without being heavy. The Louis Latour barrels compliment the wine by contribute appealing aromas of beeswax, marshmallow cream, churned butter and vanilla. This wine should age nicely. |
