This distinctive, full bodied, Burgundian style Chardonnay has a visceral smokiness and beautiful east-asian spice notes. Aged on the yeast lees (elevage sur lies) and stirred (batonage) this wine was matured for twelve months in special barrels sourced directly from coopers in Burgundy. The result unique barrel expression and an exquisite young wine for whom the best is yet to come. The good volcanic red soils of this hilly vineyard with its’ limestone basin and early deficit irrigation provides a perfect aspect for cultivating great fruit.
