      Detailed Description

      A rich, intense, multifaceted wine with layers of ripe and spicy pear, fig, apricot and buttery notes. Long, complex aftertaste.

      Reviews:

      • Wine Advocate: This wine offers a compelling waxy, honeyed citrus, subtle toasty, lusty nose, followed by a full-bodied, fabulously concentrated mouthful of leesy, multi-layered Chardonnay exhibiting honeyed grapefruit, citrus, and mineral flavors. A powerful, multi-dimensional, long (nearly a minute) finish adds to this Chardonnay's prodigious characteristics.
      • Wine Cellar: Fuller hazy yellow. Deeper, more exotic aromas of tropical fruits and roasted nuts; quite showy today. Thick, lush and chewy; this has the depth of flavor and three-dimensional texture typical of the Marcassin wines.

      Producer Information

      Marcassin is a leading Sonoma Coast wine label owned by famous winemaker Helen Turley and her viticulturalist husband John Wetlaufer. Turley is one of the most influential winemakers in California, and has acted as a consultant for many of the region's top estates, including Pahlmeyer and Peter Michael Winery.The estate is regarded as a benchmark producer of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, and the wines are known for their rich opulent style and ageworthiness. A majority of the wines produced by Marcassin are exclusively released to members of the mailing list.In the winery, Chardonnay is pressed in whole bunches, while the Pinot Noir is destemmed and cold-soaked prior to fermentation with wild yeasts. Aging takes place in new French oak with no fining, filtering or cold stablization prior to bottling. The wines are then aged further in the cellar for around five years before release.
