Tasting Note:May 25, 2018

Light to medium lemon yellow with a light greenish hue. Layered nose with granny smith apples, pears, a touch floral and ending with some citrus zest. Medium acidity (6.5/10) and medium plus body. Fresh and crisp on the palate with some underlying richness with notes of melon, green apples, white peaches and some crushed wet rocks. Dry and long finish.

Second stop in Sonoma with Andrew Berge of Spell Estate, La Pitchoune and Tiny House to name a few. Next white from La Pitchoune is their Chenoweth Chardonnay. Aged for 15 months in 50% new French oak barrels.
