Tasting Notes: The second release with the new elegant label and screw top, and it does not disappoint. Kristen Barnhisel continues her winning streak, and lets the vineyards speak. She utilized eight clones for this vintage, including the famed Wente clone. 62% malolactic fermented, with lees stirred weekly, then aged in a blend of French, Hungarian and American oak for up to nine months. Rich, viscous mouthfeel with complex notes of kiwi, nectarine and apple. Subtle notes of oak lead to a long lingering finish. Perfect for grilled chicken with a rich sauce.
