Casa Freschi Chardonnay 2014

Following the abundant 2013 season, and exacerbated by a dry winter and cold, windy conditions at flowering, yields were down by 66% in 2014. We were fortunate in that we did not experience heat extremes during this growing season, the third year in a row, and fruit was calmly harvested at optimum ripeness. We are excited with the result, the high amount of extract is balanced by lovely natural acidity. The delicate grapefruit, lime, nectarine and apple aromas can also been seen on the expansive palate that has an extremely persistent finish. This chardonnay is chosen from the best 15% of the chardonnay harvest
