2007 ReserveChardonnay

“This Chardonnay from Columbia Crest’s Estate vineyards presents aromas of apples, pears and slight flint with nuances of cinnamon, toast, coconut and vanilla. Ripe fruit flavors are enhanced by a hint of butter and creaminess on the palate followed by a perfectly balanced, long, lingering finish.” Ray Einberger, Winemaker

Purchase

Hand-picked grapes were held separately for vinification.

Grapes were pressed, and the juice cold-settled for two days before racking into new Burgundian-style barrels.

The wine aged for more than 16 months in barrels, which were hand-stirred weekly during the first 14 months.
