DescriptionTasting NotesCulinary InclinationsQty Discounts

Heirloom Cameo is our barrel fermented Chardonnay. Or as Dena would explain it: “This wine wraps you in an elegant silk scarf and instantly makes you feel really good - about being you.”

The wine was fermented in a single large format French oak barrel or “puncheon.” The goal of this fermentation is to enhance the breadth and depth of the wine through contact with oak and extended yeast or “lees” aging.

Stylistically, this wine is made to be enjoyed throughout its time in bottle. Upon release the wine is fresh with pungent aromas and a broad mouth feel, followed by a crisp and satisfying finish. We expect this wine to age gracefully for several years and will reward a laddered approach to monitoring its development.

The Chardonnay for this wine is estate grown in 1 small block. The blend is about half Dijon clone 76 and half Dijon clone 95.

Tasting Notes: Yellowjacket yellow swirls effortlessly while a hugely pungent aroma of lily, grilled star fruit and honeysuckle asserts itself. The BFC has arrived. Flashing the aftereffects of limited skin contact, the palate is broad yet delineated with underlying structure. At first playful, yet with purpose and intention, only gradually revealing the charms acquired from 16 month, large format French oak élevage that lingers resoundingly.

- Amalie Robert Estate Tasting Notes

Culinary Inclinations: Squid ink pasta sporting seared jumbo prawns tossed in extra virgin olive oil, topped with freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano and a dusting of sweet Hungarian paprika.
