By Farr, GC Cote Vineyard Chardonnay Vintage:2021 as I had an opportunity

as I had an opportunity to spend several hours tasting through all of the wines in barrel with proprietor Roberto Conterno

There is a nose of floral-based reduction which is what the French call “bourgeon de cassis”

perfectly ripe and balanced nose where ripe stone fruit aromas such as peaches and mirabelles are displayed in the first moments along with some dashes of fresh lime or lemon juice on a lobster fished out of the Atlantic just a short while before

and currants are followed by a medium to full-bodied red possessing great fruit

resonant finish is a thing of beauty
