2010 Être Chardonnay
()
$30 (retail) Wine Club pricing reflected in receipt
For this wine, Jeff Gaffner blended Chardonnay from the Sandhill Block of legendary Durell Vineyard with small amounts of marssanne, roussane and vermentino from the neighboring Parmelee-Hill Vineyard. Both vineyards fall within the Sonoma Coast appellation and are acclaimed for producing extraordinary cool climate varietals.
Winery Tasting Notes:
“Our 2010 Être Chardonnay opens with really inviting tropical aromas of mango, papaya and pineapple. On the palate, though, it’s like an inside-out caramel apple, with crisp granny smith, kiwi and exotic spice flavors giving way to a delicate hazelnut cream richness that lingers on the long finish.”
