The Jordan Estate is the product of Tom Jordan's desire to reproduce, in California, a classic French wine estate. He chose to produce only two wines, a smooth supple Cabernet and a lush, rich Chardonnay. Nearly 40 years later, Jordan Estate remains true to that original vision. Jordan Chardonnay has always been a wine of great richness, not swinging according to the pendulum of wine fashion.
Winemaker's Notes:
The 2009 Jordan Chardonnay has aromas of freshly cut green apples and honeysuckle with a hint of kiwi and lemon zest. Bright, fresh, apple flavors expand on the palate, framed by lively acidity and a touch of vanilla from five months of aging in new and used French oak barrels. Crispness and minerality linger in the long, graceful finish. This is a wine defined by elegance and finesse.
