2014 Chardonnay Mount Harlan

Tasting notes
Coming from accountant-crushing yields of 0.54 tons per acre, Calera's 2014 Chardonnay Mt Harlan was harvested near the middle of September and spent 13 months in 30% new French oak. This killer effort offers an exotic, perfumed bouquet of white peach, orange blossom, buttered citrus and brioche, with tons of chalky minerality emerging with more time in the glass. Rich, full-bodied, yet graceful, light on its feet and impeccably balanced, it's another great vintage for this cuvee to enjoy over the coming 5-7 years.
