The 2014 Chardonnay Belle Côte has similar white peach, crushed rock, crème brëlée, tangerine oil and orange marmalade notes. Like its younger counterpart in 2015, it is about as close to perfection as a Chardonnay can achieve. Both have a good ten years of upside. And the super-rare and luxurious cuvée of Point Rouge is largely a barrel selection from the Belle Cote cuvée.
Anticipated maturity: 2016-2026
The 2014 Chardonnay Belle-Côte emerges from the oldest vines on the property. Intensely mineral, with plenty of graphite, slate, dried flowers and herbs, the Belle-Côte is super-distinctive. Fruit is pushed to the background in a Chardonnay that is distinctly mineral and savory-driven in style. Belle-Côte is a combination of Rued, See and old Wente clone Chardonnay.
Anticipated maturity: 2017-2024
