Shibumi Knoll Chardonnay Buena Tierra Vineyard 2017

The 2017 vintage seems to lean towards the 2013 taste with notes of 2015 and 2016. An opulent, beautiful rounded wine for sure. On the nose you smell honeycomb and apricot with a slight hint of warm spices.

The color is bright, clear golden with legs that gently slide down the sides. The taste is a treat of Meyer lemon and vanilla with a hint of Crème Brulee. Its fresh, smooth and delicate. The complex flavors of the old vines make this wine an old soul. The finish lingers just long enough.
