Some lovely and unlikely citrus on the nose that opens up to solid peach and tropical undertones. Very subtle oak lends some nice body. On the palette we have a little bit of green olive but definitely leaning towards the fruity side of life.

A bit yeasty with citrus on the nose, like a lemon Trix yogurt. Light on the palate with fruit, but with a bit of an almost savory bite. Finishes with some mouth coating acidity.

Winemaker's Notes:

The grapes used to produce our 2010 Shannon Ridge Lake County Chardonnay were picked from several different blocks to help create an elegant multi-layered wine with great complexity. The wine was barrel fermented in American oak and a portion was put through Malo-lactic fermentation to help create a creamy buttery richness and soft vanilla flavors.
