pear and tidal pool

Vague whiffs of oak

Reminds me a bit of my Russian tasting experiences

The Hilt, Old Guard Chardonnay other_regions_italy and it still retains some(55% fruit from Sanford & Benedict vineyard and 45% from Solomon Hills vineyard), Pale gold. Musky, heady aromas of yellow plum, poached pear, lemon pith and iodine. Pliant and creamy in texture, with a restrained sweetness to its deep orchard and citrus fruit flavors. Finishes spicy and long, with a smoky mineral nuance adding bite. Josh Raynolds
