The 2015 Evenstad Reserve Chardonnay is a beautiful shade of pale yellow. Upon approach, intense aromas of Key lime, ginger, and brioche leap from the glass. As the wine continues to open, a second layer of aromatic complexity presents itself with pronounced Meyer lemon, honey, graham cracker and fresh pastries - quickly taking you back to fond memories of your favorite boulangerie in the French countryside. On the palate, both citrus and melon take center-stage and vibrant acidity is brought into harmony by a rich, creamy mouthfeel. A balance of oak and acid showcases its power and elegance, resulting in a long, lingering finish that echoes with layer upon layer of vanilla and stone fruit.
