C.C. Jentsch Small Lot Series Barrel Fermented Chardonnay 2015

Oliver, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaVery perfumed white flowers open this full bodied, whole cluster pressed and barrel-fermented chardonnay. After fermenting in two-year-old French oak, this spends six months with occasional lees-stirring in the same vessels. Sweeter orchard fruit base, textured with light peppery spice and tightened with green apple acidity. Perfumed pear and apple blossoms linger on the finish. Reflective of the warm 2015 vintage, and the sun-ripe Golden Mile Bench.Tasted: 09 August 2016Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:
