Grandma's Holiday divinity, crisp orchard apples, and sunny apricot orchards conspire to create an olfactory masterpiece that awakens the senses. With each delicate swirl of the glass, the anticipation mounts, offering a glimpse into the orchestration of taste that lies ahead.

As the elixir touches your lips, a cascade of sensations unfolds.

Socially Rated 4+ / 5 STARS!
Apple crisp, grandma's Holiday divinity and apricot aromas lead to Golden Delicious apple, butterscotch, ripe pear and macadamia nut flavors with brilliant acidity, inviting tannins and a rich finish. The best of both worlds of Chardonnay, this wine is barrel-fermented and aged in neutral French oak to highlight the fruit and add complexity.
