The 2013 Olivet Lane Vineyard Chardonnay matches the striking elegance that this special site can confer with an exquisite depth and richness. The aroma is loaded with citrus zest, ripe Bartlett pear, caramel and toffee. The wine’s focused acidity supports layered f lavors, which enter with Meyer lemon and open to reveal honeycomb, vanilla crème brulee, cappuccino, and hazelnut shortbread. The luxurious textures in the mouth appear seamless, from the superbly silken entry to the seductively satiny finish. Pair this wine with a silky wild Pacific salmon served with citrus beurre blanc to echo its texture and aromatics. This is also the wine to pour during Dungeness crab season, as cracked crab is its ultimate partner. Though enjoyable in the present in the full f lourish of its fruit, optimal drinking and aromatic complexity will approach with up to five years of cellaring.
