The 2016 OVID Napa Valley reflects the pleasure and opulence of the long and nearly perfect growing season from that created it. This wine's dense and powerful palate is complemented by freshness and vibrancy that give it tremendous poise. Expansive aromas of mulberry, fresh crushed raspberry, licorice, forest floor and pen ink are just beginning to tell the tale of a spectacular season.

At first sip, this Chardonnay is fruit-forward and refreshing. Crisp green apple, Asian pear and lemon meringue pie take center stage in our classic, cool-climate Chardonnay. More subtle tones of stone fruit, honeysuckle and yellow plum develop in the mid-palate while barrel fermentation and sur lie aging finish this Chardonnay with rich flavors of vanilla bean, butter cream and subtle hints of baking spices and clove. Well balanced acidity gives this lively wine structure and the perfect amount of bite.
