The toasty vanilla from the oak comes through on a warming cassis finish

This has a lovely aroma of perfectly ripe

with spicy complexity coming from the oak ageing

This wine is well-balanced with good structure and a long finish

Patz and Hall Bootlegger's Hill Chardonnay (Case) Mantlerhof Red and black fruitFrom a cool site on a high ridge just east of the town of Occidental, this Chardonnay is floral, fruity, rich and crisp. Grapefruit, lemon cream, cedar spice, cardamom, spicy pear and jasmine on the nose. The palate is delicate whilst retaining a rich core. Coomplex flavors of summer melon and pearlinger before a profound acidity clears.
