This citrus-driven, tropical Chardonnay might surprise some with its bright, easy-drinking energy. It showcases elegance and balance with a careful use of oak. Whole cluster pressed and barrel fermented in French oak, then aged on lees with weekly bâtonnage, this wine preserves freshness while building texture and complexity. Notes of lemon zest, starfruit, and white flowers are layered with hints of vanilla and toasted bread, leading to a vibrant, citrus-forward finish with a smooth, lingering touch.
