Barrels are for going over waterfalls. Stainless steel calls out to us. Who would want to obscure our luscious fruit flavors underneath a cloak of oak? Our 2012 Naked Chardonnay was fermented in stainless steel, is 100% Chardonnay and is to be enjoyed in all its Naked splendor.
With fresh aromas of lemon and grapefruit, this Chardonnay defines summer in a glass. Juicy flavors of lemon and nectarine, along with its bright acidity and
crisp finish will have you coming back for more and more.
A great wine to pair with any summer salad, oysters, chicken dish or simply enjoy on its own. We don’t care if you drink with your clothes on or off, just drink Naked. — 11 years ago
Needs a few more years, but once this hits its optimal window this should be a great bottle of wine. 2006 is know to have more tannin, but that is probably from this wine's youth. The color was the same as the 2003, a youthful dark red core with red edges. The nose was similar, but more supple with cherry, plum, and loam. The palate was full bodied, with full grain tannin. Bing cherry, cassis, and plum were the focus of the aromas and flavors. The finish was persistent, this wine was trying to shed its tannic cloak, but that will take another 2-3 years to resolve. Great wine! — 12 years ago
Loving the Barossa lately. Flew this one back from working vintage 2010. Rich, beefy, almost cool climey until the velvet blanket of fruit and oak cloak it down. — 10 years ago
Very intense, nutty, great with diverse food courses, a little volatile, needed decanting, crazy acidity but enough flesh to cloak it — 11 years ago
Earthy, mineral driven, super bubbly. Mother Nature with a sharp dagger. — 12 years ago
Nose: blue and black fruit, anise.
Mouth: blue/black fruit, tobacco, spice, laced by nice acidity and a soft cloak of tannin. 30 sec finish. Delish! — 10 years ago
