Lafond 2013 Lafond Vineyard Musqué Clone Chardonnay (Sta. Rita Hills)

Country: US / Lafond Vineyard Musqué Clone
Variety: Chardonnay California
Winery: Lafond / Sta. Rita Hills

This clonal study leans into a quite tropical area, blending aromas of honeysuckle and other white flowers with guava fruit. There is good energy on the palate, with a sour apple-cider character midway, dried pears throughout, stony minerality and a bitter aftertaste.
