Leaping Horse Chardonnay 2017

Medium bodied with a delightful pale yellow hue, the 2016 Leaping Horse Vineyards Chardonnay is bright and crisp from start to finish. It has citrus highlights to green apples, pears and tropical fruit aromas and flavors. The finish hints to a bit of lemon zest and a tight minerality that is enjoyable and refreshing.

An earthy aroma precedes vivid zingy citrus, and herb and butter flavors in this light to medium-bodied wine that has 10% Viognier blended in. It has good balance due to fresh acidity and will be a versatile wine for food pairing.
