2020 Peay Sonoma Coast Chardonnay - CALIFORNIA, USA. 750ml
Composed of 100% Chardonnay, 80% sourced from Peay Estate Vineyard with the balance from Searby Vineyard. The wine underwent native yeast fermentation, full malolactic, and aged on its lees for 11 months in 33% new French oak barrels. Bottled unfined and unfiltered. Only 575 cases produced. Tasting notes from the producer: "The nose is exotic and engaging with lemon meringue and buttered brioche aromas touched off by a hint of flint smoke. The fruit on the palate adds a little baked lemon and crème brûlee notes. The texture on the palate is silky and the various aromas are knit together and harmonious making this wine ready to enjoy now. The wine finishes with a freshness and a hint of saltiness."
