2023 La Sirena Chardonnay

Pale white gold color with aromas of green apple, citrus notes of lemon zest and kumquat, and just a hint of French oak. On the palate, it's crisp, fresh and elegant, with great acid balance, and beautiful purity of aromas and flavors reflecting each other. The minerality of place comes through from the rocky hillside vineyard in the Russian River Valley, and has a flinty note reminiscent of Chablis. A delightfully food-friendly Chardonnay that was barrel aged on the lees for 10 months.

Sourced from the original 1969 planting of the Rued clone of Chardonnay, known for its somewhat tropical aromatics (some even refer to it as the Muscat clone of Chardonnay).
