Burgess Chardonnay "Burnside Road Vineyard" 2018 Russian River

Cases Produced: 823

WINEMAKER NOTES: Fermented in both stainless steel (15%) and neutral French Oak barrels (85%),
the wine reflects the pronounced fruit flavors and high quality of the vintage.
Pale gold in hue with aromas of citrus blossom, lemon curd, passion fruit
and lime zest with a touch of buttered popcorn and minerality in the glass.
A round palate follows with balanced acidity, guava, mango and a satiny
weight with ocean essence.
