2014 Winderlea Chardonnay

818 cases produced

Brilliant, golden straw in color, the 2014 Winderlea Chardonnay shines with a complex blend of aromatics.  Citrus pith and wet stone follow through to a palate that is marked by minerality, poached pear, crème brulée, bright lemon and a creamy quality that reinforces subtler notes of toasty brioche.  Slightly tropical, the texture and structure of this wine leave a long, perfectly balanced finish.
