Clos Pegase 2005 Hommage Mitsuko’s Vineyard Chardonnay (Carneros)

Country: US / Hommage Mitsuko’s Vineyard
Variety: Chardonnay California
Winery: Clos Pegase / Carneros

Superripe in fruit and superoaky, this is a big, lush, powerful Chardonnay, but for all the size, it maintains balance and elegance. Potent in smoky, vanilla-accented pineapple brûlée, exotic date and stony mineral flavors, it shows the crisp acidity the vineyard is known for, and finishes dry and spicy.
