Whitecliff Vineyard 2014 Reserve Chardonnay (Hudson River Region)

Country: US / Reserve
Variety: Chardonnay New York
Winery: Whitecliff Vineyard / Hudson River Region

Sultry vanilla, smoke and bergamot notes thread languorously on the nose of this intensely perfumed Chardonnay. The palate is more subdued, showing zesty red apple and lemon anchored by a crisp acidic backbone. It’s a touch woody now but could balance out with a few more years of bottle aging.
