Chateau Ste. Michelle Chardonnay Columbia Valley

The grape must was aged in new and used French oak barrels. Fermentation lasted eight days. The wine remained in the barrels for seven months, underwent malolactic fermentation there, and the yeast was stirred regularly.

The Columbia Valley has about two hours more sunlight during the main growing season than California, which increases the fruit ripeness of the grapes in the region, because daylight causes the important photosynthesis for the sugar and thus the aroma development in the grapes.

This dense Chardonnay seduces with rich aromas of apples, honey, and lime. The acidity is perfectly integrated, the finish silky and beautifully balanced.
