Racy, succulent wine with ripe aromas of pear and vanilla delight the nose. A spicy minerality and crisp acidity balance the flavors of vibrant Mandarin orange and lemon zest in the mouth. This is a versatile, succulent food wine, pairing well with a pan seared halibut in beurre blanc sauce.

For someone who isn't a Chardonnay fan, this is pretty good. Hints of pear and vanilla.

100% barrel fermented. Noticeable oak throughout with spicy vanilla, butterscotch flavors on top of cider apple and sweet hay notes.
