Description
For our Lioness Chardonnay, my aim is to craft a big, beautiful Napa Valley chardonnay that showcases what our estate vineyard is capable of producing. I am striving for full, rich, round flavors when I make the barrel selection, and am attracted to clones that produce fruit of low yields but tremendous quality. The Lioness is beautifully balanced and dynamic with a lush texture and layered flavors. Generous aromas of crème brûlée and salted butterscotch are lifted by a backbone of lemon verbena and blood orange. Hints of warm vanilla, grilled baguette and toasted almonds are complemented by undertones of well-integrated honeyed citrus that persist throughout a long satisfying finish.
