Wow! All the wines are my heart and soul but this is my jam! Last of the cool wet years led to picking slightly earlier to preserve the integrity of the fruit. Extra elevage allowed the development of the mid palate and accentuated the chalky and crunchy oyster shell minerality that I absolutely adore. Oxygen was inhibited in this Chardonnay as opposed to the some of my other chardonnay, to compliment the site and vintage conditions. I love them both but they will satisfy different food matches and palates alike. – James Madden
