Tasting Notes
“2014 was another beautiful vintage at White Rock, and this Chardonnay is showing beautifully and lively. The nose is bright and fresh with notes of zesty lemon and stone fruits. Green apple fragrances yield to a full mouth of quince, ripe melon, and finishes with hints of Meyer lemon. Our Chardonnay develops its lush mouth feel from 11 months of sur-lies aging in French oak barrels. The acid is bright and well integrated, promising excellent age-ability.” – Christopher Vandendriessche, winemaker
