Stonestreet, Upper Barn Chardonnay Vintage:2015 Les CorbinsFrom a site made famous by Helen Turley when she was buying its fruit, the 2014 Chardonnay Upper Barn is at an 1,800 foot elevation and spent 11 months in 52% new French oak. A killer Chardonnay (as it always has been), the wine offers up notes of wet gravel, citrus oil, apple blossom, orange marmalade, honeysuckle, and a hint of almond paste. Fabulous fruit on the attack, mid palate and finish characterizes this dry, gorgeous, compelling Chardonnay
