Sensory Description:

The 2025 Delta Chardonnay opens with inviting aromas of ripe yellow apple, tangerine, vanilla, and crème brûlée. The palate is generous yet vibrant, delivering layers of orchard fruit and citrus framed by subtle creamy richness from barrel aging. Native fermentation preserves freshness and site expression, while balanced acidity carries the wine through a long, polished finish accented by delicate notes of toasted oak and baking spice.
