Cattleya Cuvée Number Five Chardonnay 2019 - 750ML

A glistening greenish-gold hue as it splashes into the glass, the 2019 Cattleya Cuvée Number Five Chardonnay embodies the finest characteristics of this varietal in the cool, maritime climate of the Sonoma Coast. Tightly wound as it takes its first breath, this wine begins to open with each swirl; possessing notes of red apple skin, lemon peel, white peach, and distinct coastal aromatics of crushed rock and sea breeze. On the palate, complexity presents itself with flavors of baked apple, green pear, and stone fruit that marry with texture and palate weight from months of undisturbed lees contact in neutral French oak. Focused acidity on the finish showcases the purity of the fruit, all while suggesting this wine will continue to amaze for years to come.
