the mystery of how to make a chardonnay, is solved with this wine; fruity, rich and creamy, yet one that finishes so dry and crisp in acidity. who else holds back a chardonnay five years except jim clendenen? low in alcohol and balanced despite being aged in 100% new french oak, it's just now beginning a long journey of excellence. it has a soft, lilting mouthfeel and incredible complexity that will only improve with time.
