2015 Walter Hansel Cuvee Alyce Chardonnay

The 2015 Chardonnay Cuvee Alyce (named after his mother ) is produced from a field blend of Hyde and Hudson Wente selections. This is a big Chardonnay made from tiny berries. Orange marmalade, tangerine oil, honeysuckle and citrus are all present in this beautifully textured, full-bodied Chardonnay that shows little evidence of oak. It should drink well for at least a decade.
VIN93 The 2015 Chardonnay Cuvée Alyce is the richest and most exotic of these wines. A classic Russian River Chardonnay, the Cuvée Alyce is laced with the essence of tangerine, honey, roasted almonds and butter. This open-knit, inviting Chardonnay will drink well right out of the gate.
