Description:
The 2001 Rochioli and Allen Chardonnay displays a full range of fruit and floral aromas: lemon, apple, pineapple, pear and jasmine. The fruit aromas combine in appealing ways with toasty oak and fermentation contributions. The combinations result in aromas of lemon meringue and toasted coconut. Flavors follow with citrus, apple and pineapple delivered with a full and soft mouthfeel. A long, mineral finish and lasting acidity come from the inherent quality of fruit from these companion vineyards. Subtle and interesting combinations of fruit and oak, nice mouthfeel and balance are the attributes that I seek in winemaking. In that sense, the 2001 Rochioli and Allen Chardonnay is one of my personal favorites of the wines I've made.
