Los Vascos Chardonnay

Description

The winter started with near-normal precipitation and was followed by a rainy, rather cold spring free of frost. Temperatures remained on the low side in summer, particularly in January, resulting in slow ripening. Unusually heavy rain occurred during the harvest; however, appropriate strategy and pre-harvest management enabled good quality grapes to be obtained.TASTING NOTES August 2016 Beautiful bright yellow color. The nose is rich in fruit aromas of banana, apricot, gooseberry, physalis, kumquat, and yellow plums, accented by notes of cucumber, yellow bell pepper, and green olives. The mouthfeel is fresh, creamy and buttery. Best served cold, between 10 and 12C. – Barons de Rothschild Lafite
