2009 Savoy Vineyard Chardonnay
Anderson Valley
The nose is immediate with lemon citrus and full pink grapefruit with hints of stone fruit. Lily floral aromas begin to emerge along with jasmine and white pepper perfume spice. These aromatics are matched by a stern backbone of granite minerality. The viscosity of the wine emerges slowly, leading to crisp acid. Persistent minerality continues in the mouth, with all the floral and perfume characters that were on the nose. This is a fantastic example of a cooler climate Chardonnay, it's a serious wine, particularly matched with food now, but will age wonderfully over the next 5-7 years (2014-2016).
