As is this 100% LARC Hill Estate Chardonnay. We purposely planted the dijon clone 15 Chardonnay vines on the lower slope of our Block 34 vineyard above the south shore of Lake Chelan, where the lake breezes allow the fruit to ripen slowly by day and cool by night. A lovely blend of tree fruit and tropical citrus notes make this Chardonnay versatile for sipping and food accompaniment alike. Perfection. Per Se!
