2005 ESK Valley Black Label Chardonnay rich with lots of ripe stone fruit & tropical flavors
Tasting
Notes
4/14/09
Bright yellow color with a slight greenish hue, this is a full flavored Chardonnay. The nose displays toasty oak, which adds a spice back drop along with some buttered notes over the combo of stone fruit and tropical fruit characters on the nose. The palate offers up a slight creamy texture that becomes more apparent as the wine warms in the glass, with flavors of toast, ripe peach and citric brightness that gives this good palate length and drive, with a hint of nuttiness coming up through as an end note on the finish.
