Chappellet Chardonnay Grower Collection Calesa Vineyard 2017

The 2017 growing season yielded a radiant expression of Chardonnay at Calesa Vineyard, with inviting aromas of Meyer lemon, orange zest, and hints of tropical flowers. On the palate, luxurious layers of brioche, melted butter, and baking spices add depth and complexity to flavors of lemon drop, lychee, and apricot, with fine-tuned acidity and subtle hints of smoke and sweet oak carrying through to a long, satisfying finish.

Fresh, crisp, and juicy with a rich texture and an elegant style that combines tangy citrus and lush, creamy, vanillainfluenced elements.
