Mont Rochelle Oak Matured Chardonnay 2001

Bright straw yellow illuminates nutty marzipan in seamless combination with candied orange and a citrus reduction with the palate revealing an arresting display of concentration and balance. Judicious use of coopers results in exquisite tension between fruit and wood while earthy, minerally Burgundian tones add yet another dimension to the wine.
