Top Notes For
Sipping Fine Wine

Pale yellow with stone fruit aromas and toasty notes on the nose. The palate shows Apple, peach and apricot flavors with vanilla and toasty oak flavors. This wine sat on oak, aging for 10 months. It's nice to see how French Chardonnay handles oak, as this is not the norm. Vivid acidity on a medium finish. Nice value from France.

Compliments seafood. Our first choice wine wasn't readily available but this was fine. Restaurant was overrated.
