The 2007 Chardonnay Fermentado en Barrica spent 12 months in French oak with batonnage. It displays aromas of toasty oak, pear, and apple leading to a. Chablis-like wine on the palate. Crisp, vibrant, and spicy, it has excellent flavors but it is slightly lean and compact in the finish. Drink it over the next 2-3 years.
