Tasting notes
The 2017 Chardonnay Trout Gulch Vineyard from Ceritas has a fragrant nose with apple tart, crushed stone and peppermint, lively and vibrant, just like the palate that is very open and ready for business. Tensile from the start, I adore the acidity here, and there are enticing touches of peach skin and saffron towards the prolonged finish. Superb. Tasted at the "Judgement of Clapham Junction" dinner in London.

The 2017 Chardonnay Trout Gulch Vineyard is fabulous. Finely cut and chiseled, the 2017 exudes energy. Lime, crushed rocks, mint and white flowers all run through this super-expressive, vibrant Chardonnay from Ceritas. Don't miss it.
