Louisvale Chardonnay (Wooded – 8 months 50% new wood)

Description Louisvale’s signature wine. This ultra-premium Chardonnay has been matured in the finest French Oak available. The nose is intensely complex with elegant aromas of lemon blossom, pineapple and apricot, toast and spice notes. The palate is smooth and buttery with a lingering aftertaste. The grapes for this quality wine were carefully selected from blocks spread across Louisvale. After hand picking and carefully pressing, the wine was 100% barrel fermented and spent 8 to 10 months in oak.
