The Character
Overall Bright & crisp, long elegant rich finish
Aromas Green apple, pineapple & crème brulee with clean minerality & a touch of toasty oak
Mouthfeel Medium body, bright, rich finish
Tasting Notes Sourced from the original 1969 planting of the Rued clone of Chardonnay, known for its tropical aromatics (some even refer to it as the Muscat clone of Chardonnay) and blended with fruit from the Bacigalupi Paris Block, one of the sources for the Chateau Montelena 1973 Chardonnay that won the Paris Tasting. Brilliant light golden straw in color with gorgeous fruit aromas of crisp pear, pineapple, delicate melon, a whiff of green apple and citrus, with nice minerality and complementary notes of caramel, beeswax, and a kiss of vanilla. A very light touch of of toasty French oak enhances the aromatics and fruit flavors across the palate. The mouthfeel, texture and flavor profile is just delicious, with nicely balanced acidity and richness that lingers in an extraordinary finish.

The Story
This elegant, non-malolactic, lightly oaked Chardonnay is a bright and complex expression of the grape that is food friendly and simply delicious. Sourced from the original 1969 planting of the Rued clone of Chardonnay, known for its somewhat tropical aromatics (some even refer to it as the Muscat clone of Chardonnay), and blended with fruit from the Bacigalupi Paris Block, one of the sources for the Chateau Montelena 1973 Chardonnay that won the Paris Tasting. La Sirena first started producing Chardonnay with the 2016 vintage and it is now a yearly release.
