Tasting Notes and Description
Tasting Notes For Au Contraire Russian River Chardonnay 2019
Whole cluster pressed. The juice was settled off the heavy lees and split between stainless steel and barrel fermentation with light lees stirring. Aged for 8 months in tank and barrel (100% French oak, 30% new).
Gold with green tints, this Chardonnay offers a nose with a pronounced lemon citrus core as well as aromas of pear and crisp apple lined with a floral note of jasmine. On the palate, citrus and tree fruits are complemented by a hint of brioche and toast.
Pairs well with shellfish, cream sauces, roasted chicken, fish, and zesty grilled vegetable dishes as well as mild gouda and soft cheeses.
