"The Point Rouge cuvee, which is a selection of the top barrels, tends to be made in a limited quantity, and, according to Nick Morlet, is meant to be cellared for 25+ years. There are only 150 cases of the 2010 Chardonnay Point Rouge, which exhibits lots of spice, buttered citrus, tropical fruits and a liquid minerality that runs through the aromatics and flavors. Full-bodied, rich and majestic, this spectacular Chardonnay should drink well for at least 10-15 years."
