Item Description
The flagship wine, aged in 100% new French oak, is the 2003 Chardonnay Marcassin Estate. It came across as a California Corton-Charlemagne look-alike, with aromas of white fruits intermixed with brioche, hazelnut, liquified rocks, and a touch of gun flint. The wine has glorious richness, crisp underlying acidity, some hints of orange blossom, great structure, and a soaring, long finish of close to a minute. This is a stunner that is about as compelling as any Chardonnay made in the world. It should drink well for up to a decade.
