Lot #941. Marcassin Chardonnay Marcassin Vineyard 2012

Description: Consists of 1 Bottle, 0.75L
Score: 100 RP.
"The 2012 Chardonnay Marcassin Vineyard, which will probably be released in a few months, displays great minerality, notes of honeysuckle, orange marmalade, poached pear, and white flowers as well as a touch of quince. A wine of great intensity, yet incredibly ethereal elegance, this light greenish gold-colored wine is full-bodied, stunningly rich, and altogether remarkable. When you consider that they use 100% new French oak and 100% heavy toast for both their Chardonnays and Pinot Noirs, it is remarkable how little oak appears in these wines. This wine should age well for 10-15 years, as most of the Marcassin Estate Chardonnays have done to date." Wine Advocate #223, Mar 2016
Lot Location: Orange County
Estimate: $400
