Best White: 2009 Cuillin Chardonnay

Winemaker’s tasting notes: Made entirely of fruit from the Capercaillie vineyard, predominant varietal characters are complimented by tight, nutty vanillin oak, fresh peach aromas and a complex, lingering finish. All Capercaillie chardonnay is matured for about six months in new French oak to enhance the varietal characteristics.

Screwcap. Available in cases of 6 or 12 bottles.
