Slow Press Chardonnay 2022 (California)

Description

Apple, Floral, Oak

"A strong phenolic grip gives this wine a bitter edge that frames fresh fruit-meets-floral aromas and flavors. Find notes of sweet pea and peony flowers, lychee, white grape, and white grapefruit pith and oil" Wine Enthusiast

"A firm white, offering notes of citrus pith and apple skin that add an appealing framework, with a core of lemon-lime and Honeycrisp apple flavors" Wine Spectator

Brassy golden. Tropical notes of white grapefruit and white chocolate. Flavours of fresh apples and pears intermingle with notes of toasted vanilla and oak with a full bodied, creamy finish.

Instead of smashing the skins & seeds, Slowpress press the grapes gently to extract the best juice. Letting the juice ferment slowly at colder temperatures amplifies the grape’s natural fruit flavours.

Aged in American oak barrels for 9 months to develop a full-bodied, creamy mouthfeel.
