Country: US / Russian Oak
Variety: Chardonnay New York
Winery: Comtesse Thérèse / North Fork of Long Island
Aged 14 months in Russian Oak, this is a different kind of Chard with notes of chamomile, fresh mint sprigs, vanilla and cigar tobacco among the more typical melon fruits and lime citrus. Medium-full but a bit flat in the mouth with a solid but quite smoky finish.
