DESCRIPTION
DESCRIPTION
2015 was the earliest vintage in the past 15 years. This was not only due to heat, but also because of the drought. We started picking white varietals in mid-August, which allowed us to protect the acidity and fragrance of these wines extremely well. Because most white varietals ripened much earlier in the season, they were able to mature without burning the acidity. Therefore, we saw acid levels comparable to 2011. This seems counterintuitive. However, because the grapes ripened so early, we were able to shift the entire process for the whites into a colder growing season—thus permitting an amazing balance.
Made exclusively in stainless steel tanks, this is the Chablis of Alpha Omega's Chardonnay lineup. Fresh aromas of green apple and pear are followed by a crisp and clean palate sensation with a strong backbone of acidity. A perfect pairing with shellfish.
