2011 Heintz Vineyard Chardonnay

Lifted bouquet of tree ripened apricots, nectarine, orange rind, nutmeg and roasted vanilla bean supported by subtle oak spices. The rich mouthfeel and flavors of peach cobbler, orange blossom, tropical overtones, citrus blossom and crème brulee linger on the palate. Natural acidity and tropical fruit flavors slice through this wine’s creamy texture and minerality. The Goldridge sandy loam soil at the Heintz Ranch conveys of sense of dusty minerals both on the nose and in the mouth. A great representative of a cool climate chardonnay.
