One of the most refreshing and unique Chardonnays I've ever had. The toasted oak barrels give a wonderful smokiness, leaving a creamy creme brûlée like finish. extremely well balanced with tropical fruit notes of peach, kiwi, lemon, and grapefruit. With only 1,900 cases produced I suggest buying it while you can.

Opened up 30 minutes before consuming. I appreciated the fuller body of this Pinot. Fairly one dimensional and very jammy. A light nose with hints of blackberry. Noticeable flavors include a heavy amount of cherry with back tones of raspberry, blackberry and light leather. Tannins are light with nearly no finish. Very easy to drink. Overall very well executed.

The fruit is heavy on dark berries which is delicious. It lacks in complexity but does not compromise the quality. This wine has a long lingering finish of vanilla and oak that will want you wanting more!
