2012 WALKER STATION “THE ORIGINAL” CHARDONNAY

California’s equivalent to a brilliant Batard-Montrachet, Walker Station’s sensational Chardonnay launches a carousel of flavors that entertains every taste bud with stunning purity.  Authored by legendary winemaker Paul Hobbs, this 4 barrel production Chardonnay flirts with perfection.

Sparing absolutely no expense in creating a truly Grand Cru level California Chardonnay, this wine spends an impressive 15 months in exclusive, high-quality Latour French oak barrels that casts a kaleidoscope of honeysuckle, caramelized apple, white peach and wet pebble notes that explode from the glass.  It’s also aged sur-lie, which contributes greatly to the wine’s profound depth and richness.  This complexity supports fascinating nuances of lemon butter, poached pear, pineapple and crushed rock which build greater definition with time in the glass.  With 98 cases produced, I can’t more highly recommend securing a case before it’s to late.
