Overlooking the Pacific Ocean and surrounding Rosemary Talley’s home, Rosemary’s Vineyard is the coolest site at Talley Vineyards. For years, this vineyard has yielded some of Talley’s most age-worthy and highly regarded wines, and the 2018 Chardonnay continues this legacy. On the nose, this wine opens with fresh aromas of Asian pear, lime blossom and caramel. The palate is rich, full-bodied, and elegant with flavors of Meyer lemon, kiwi skin, fresh churned butter on fresh French baguette, and red papaya, all balanced with a refreshing acidity before leading into a long finish. Enjoy!
