2019 Tendril XL Chardonnay
Tasting Notes
The XL is the most layered and complex wine we make. Some of our finest Chardonnay is fermented and aged in neutral French oak barrels for 30 months. The XL, named for its extral long barrel age, delivers seemingly endless waves of creaminess and complexity from yeast contact followed by the juicy acidity of the Chardonnay fruit.
Pairings
Scallops in lemon brown butter sauce, lobster rolls, bloomy rind cheese such as Brie, and alpine cheese such as gruyere.
