An excellent and elegant Chardonnay with a nose of pineapple, red apple and spice. The round flavors created by oak barrel fermentation and malolactic fermentation are never overpowering, offering creamy flavors of pineapple red apple, citrus and tropicals. Notes of minerality create complexity with perfect levels of mouth-watering acidity for food pairing. Buy Alpha Omega Chardonnay 2009
A lovely balance of stainless steel fermentation crispness and malolactic fermentation roundness. The nose opens with notes pear and tropical fruits. The palate experience flavors of apple, pineapple pear and lots of crisp tropicals. Sur-lies aging adds to the creamy soft mouth-feel. Plenty of crisp acidity to pair with lighter summer fare. The finish could be longer.
A very focused and delicious Pinot that opens with a nose of cherry pie. Give this wine a little time and it will reward with well integrated flavors of strawberry jam, plum, bing cherry and strawberry with a long spicy finish. Jammy on the front yet crisp acidity on the finish. Interesting complexity. Buy This Wine
