Iron Horse’s 2011 Chardonnays are all fine in their own ways, but this Estate bottling seems to combine many of their best qualities in a single wine. With ripe orange, pear, apple and smoky oak flavors accented by brisk acidity, it shows the Iron Horse signature of elegant balance. S.H.
Product Description:
"The 2011 Estate Chardonnay is signature Green Valley. 100% Barrel Fermented, 100% “Heritage Clones” and zero malolactic fermentation. The oak is beautifully integrated and the finish exceptionally long. On the nose, vanilla and spice, ripe red apple and a touch of lees on the finish. By mouth: Savory, complex and satisfying, a touch of minerality, tarragon and vanilla. Definitely a food wine. Pair this wine with roast chicken, crab cakes, salmon, halibut, lobster, grilled mushrooms, fava beans and buttered corn." -Winery
