Tasting notes
The 2017 Chardonnay Olivet Lane is lush and full of pleasure this vintage, with a nose of baked apples, white peaches, honeycomb, hazelnuts and gentle notes of floral perfume. The palate is rounded and silky with honeyed flavor layers that are lifted and fresh, and it finishes long and savory. 631 cases produced.

The 2017 Chardonnay Olivet Lane is brilliant, offering loads of caramelized peach, toasted bread, honeyed minerality, and white flower-like aromas and flavors. With medium-bodied richness, a rounded, fleshy texture, good acidity, and a great finish, it’s another undeniably delicious, already approachable Chardonnay from this team. Drink it over the coming 3-5 years.
The 2017 Chardonnay Olivet Lane is super-expressive from the outset. Apricot, tangerine, spice, chamomile and light honey nuances are front and center. Medium in body and racy, the 2017 has so much to offer. Hints of pineapple and butter add an exotic flair.
