An unusually hot September hastened the maturation of the Chardonnay somewhat. The benefit realized was the retention of higher levels of natural acidity to balance the ripe stone-fruit character and regional minerality. Winemaking & Cellar Information The grapes were whole-cluster pressed, followed by a 24-hour cold settling period and racked into stainless steel tanks. The tanks were then inoculated with natural wine yeast where the wine remained for a cool 50F, 18-day fermentation. The Chardonnay remained sur-lie (on its fermentation lees), for six months to encourage the development of its ambrosial complexity. To capture the true essence of Chardonnay fruit and the Edna Val ley terroir, this lot was held separately without the use of oak or malo-lactic fermentation. Analytical Information Alcohol: 14.3% T.A.: 6.45 g/L pH: 3.5 Brix at harvest: 24.6 Winemaker Notes Fresh and vibrant, this delicious un-oaked wine reflects the true essence of Chardonnay at its purest. Asian pear and white peach fill the palate through to the clean, bright finish. Library Notes Peach, fruity, nuttiness flavors that have evolved with aging. Drink within the year 2007 for peak taste. <LI>SKU: 1237 Other products in the category <A HREF="http://store.tolosawinery.com/Category9" TITLE="Library Wines">Library Wines</A>: <LI><A HREF=http://store.tolosawinery.com/Product78 TITLE="Pinot Noir Vertical 4-pack ">Pinot Noir Vertical 4-pack </A> -- 1999-2002 Pinot Noir Vertical 4-pack <LI><A HREF=http://store.tolosawinery.com/Product80 TITLE="Syrah Vertical 4-pack ">Syrah Vertical 4-pack </A> -- 1999-2002 Syrah Vertical 4-pack <LI><A HREF=http://store.tolosawinery.com/Product79 TITLE="Chardonnay Vertical 4-pack ">Chardonnay Vertical 4-pack </A> -- 2001-2004 Chardonnay Vertical 4-pack <LI><A HREF=http://store.tolosawinery.com/Product74 TITLE="2001 Tolosa Pinot Noir">2001 Tolosa Pinot Noir</A> -- Aromatic notes of rose petal and black fruit leap out of the glass. <LI><A HREF=http://store.tolosawinery.com/Product73 TITLE="2002 Tolosa Pinot Noir">2002 Tolosa Pinot Noir</A> -- Brooding, floral, raspberry and cherry aroma with a hint of mocha. <LI><A HREF=http://store.tolosawinery.com/Product2 TITLE="2003 Tolosa Pinot Noir">2003 Tolosa Pinot Noir</A> -- 91 points Wine Enthusiast, Silver Medal SF Chronicle 2007 <LI><A HREF=http://store.tolosawinery.com/Product76 TITLE="2001 Tolosa Syrah">2001 Tolosa Syrah</A> -- Nice density of color, with aromas of spice, white pepper, violet and aged has given it a good texture. <LI><A HREF=http://store.tolosawinery.com/Product53 TITLE="2004 Tolosa Pinot Noir 750ml">2004 Tolosa Pinot Noir 750ml</A> -- Quintessential cool-climate Pinot Noir, with crushed rose petal, dried cherry and orange zest aromatics. <LI><A HREF=http://store.tolosawinery.com/Product21 TITLE="2003 Tolosa Syrah">2003 Tolosa Syrah</A> -- 92 points, Wine Enthusiast & Gold Medal in SF Chronicle 2007 <LI><A HREF=http://store.tolosawinery.com/Product5 TITLE="2003 Tolosa Chardonnay">2003 Tolosa Chardonnay</A> -- 92 points, Editors Choice in Wine Enthusiast Top 100 in 2005! <LI><A HREF=http://store.tolosawinery.com/Product3 TITLE="2004 Tolosa Chardonnay">2004 Tolosa Chardonnay</A> -- 91 Points, Wine Enthusiast <A HREF="http://store.tolosawinery.com" TITLE="Tolosa Winery Products">Tolosa Winery Products</A> <A HREF="http://www.tolosawinery.com">Tolosa Winery</A> Tolosa Winery <A HREF="http://www.nexternal.com" TITLE="ecommerce software">ecommerce software</A> powered by Nexternal
